Pete you know how to hold a rotary healthy.
Any results of the FC?
I do not do short journeys, I drive like I have just stolen it
& always add a little ZX1 at each Oil Change (every 1500 miles) & pre-mix 300-1 with Stihl 4 mix oil.
FC not done yet Thomas, will post results once completed.

Bit of a bugger, but you will overcome, if it was "Simples" we would all be at it Jesse

This was originally going to be a cheap quick setup to get me running. So I can get a drop tank made at a later date
.
I was using the OEM pump haha. Got a Carter 4600 (Carter black) on order which should be more than fine for the surge tank/swirl pot
