Thanks again gents. Do the jets need replacing? Theoretically, they shouldn't wear as nothing touches them.

Does anyone supply a kit for both carbs? I have seen kits at Rimmers and Paddock, but not sure if they contain everything. The carbs are in good condition ( well they were when the car last ran 9 years ago) Would I need to replace the float valves? Are there any other parts that may need replacing that are not included in the kits? Thanks again

Thanks very much. I knew I would get the right answer here.

Hi Chaps Can anyone tell me what the correct hose is for the connection between the 2 carbs on my Vitesse 2.0 mk 2 It appears to be some sort of air or vacuum connection. Should it be normal rubber, like fuel line? The existing has gone very hard and I am servicing the carbs, but can't find any information Thanks

Dave, do you have a dimension for the smallest spacer? Thanks

Both of those refineries closed years ago. Shell Haven in 1999 and Coryton in 2012

So even if I applied the wrong one, nobody would know?

Thanks Pete I will try Dave. It seems strange that there is no list of which heaters were fitted to which cars. I have had no joy either. I don't suppose it matters in the scheme of things, but it would be nice to know I have the correct one I wonder if there are any books at HQ that might tell me?

www.vehicleheaters.co.uk This guy will build a new heater matrix which is more efficient I got one for my Vitesse, cost £124 Haven't tried it yet as I am still rebuilding the car after resto

I am assembling my restored Vitesse and need to fit the correct heater decals. It originally had aluminium plates glued on to the cover (see below), but I don't think they are correct, as there are no rivet holes in the casing There are various model numbers for these heaters, but many of the labels available seem to be for MGs The concours Vitesse in the TSSC headquarters has the FHR 3456 label, but this also appears on MGBs Can anyone tell me which model of Smiths heater was fitted in this car and hence which labels I need Thanks
