Yep I’ve got the manual but think this refers to CDS carbs not the CDs fitted to my Vitesse which looks slightly different

Thanks Johny and Iain what was confusing is that in the Haynes 2000 manual it shows the position of the fast idle screw on the CD150 on the same cam as the throttle stop screw - which it isn’t!

Hi Pete I only seem to have the throttle stop screw on both carbs and the choke on one (see attached) but no fast idle screw on either

Sorry, another question... My vitesse is fitted with CD150s which I think were fitted to 2000s? The 2000 manual indicates there should be a a throttle stop screw and a fast idle screw but there's only the throttle stop screw on mine. Are there variations of of the CD150 carbs i.e. some without a fast idle screw? If so do I just use the throttle stop screws when balancing both carbs?

Ah, ok. Think I may be overfilling

The damper oil from my twin stromberg CD150s is draining out quite regularly but can’t see any obvious leak - is there an O ring in the casing where the needle is held in place by a grub screw? I think there is in the CDSE but not sure about the CD150

Brilliant! Will give it a go later this week

Hi Colin, yes that certainly does help but I’m still struggling with the first bit. My understanding is that I cut the green wire going into terminal B on the flasher unit . I then connect one of the green/purple wires from the new hazard switch to the green wire I’ve just cut going into terminal B and then connect the other hazard switch green/ purple wire to the other end of the cut green wire. Have I understood this correctly?

Hi Paul - thanks for the thread but still not clear about which wires to disconnect / connect !

Just starting fit the hazard warning kit but I'me very confused about the Moss fitting instructions which I think are the same as the club's. No 1. This is fine - I'll fit the purple wire directly to the battery and then find a suitable earth under the dash. No 2. From my ignition switch I have 1 x brown, 1 x white/red and 3 x white wires running into the loom and I think there's 2 white wires running to the fuse box on the bulkhead. The flasher unit has green/pink in terminal P , green/brown in terminal L and green in terminal x (which I think is also called 'B'. So which wire should I disconnect and from where? No 3. The wires going into the flasher unit are sealed i.e. they don't have any visible connectors so do I cut the green wire going into terminal B (X) and fit a double bullet connector for the new green/purple wire or can I splice this new wire in using a scotch lock? The second green/purple wire needs to be joined to the 'feed wire' on tech flasher unit - which is the feed wire? Sorry if this is all a bit obvious - it's just not to me!

Thanks Chris

Sorry - another question. I need to extend all of the cables from the new switch . The purple power cable has a 30 amp in line fuse fitted. Can I use 14/O.3 cables to extend the existing cables including the purple power one? If not what gauge cables should I use?

Thanks both - will try the ignition option

That's great - thanks

Just bought a kit from Moss (GSS159) for my vitesse . The purple wire needs to go to a constant live but the wire itself isn't long enough to reach the battery or solenoid so can it go on the live terminal on the ignition?
