Hi Rory. have you tried Gravity feeding the fuel into the Carb? This was how I discovered my feed pipe was blocked. Used a funnel and piece of pipe onto the Carb. Filled the float chamber and got Judith to start the Moke. Then kept topping up the funnel. Moke ran until I run out of Petrol in the jug.

Hi,

Thanks I will give this a go tomorrow. Unfortunately I don't have Judith so will have to find a suitable substitute haha. This non starting problem has been persistent for a while now. By the way excellent castle you have there in Kenilworth.

Rory
