I'm trying to fit some SU's to the 101 (finally! Ta Lee!), but i cant seem to work out how the accelerator linkage connects properly. I have linked the carbs, but am now trying to link the cables to the carb.
Can anybody point me to or provide a diagram or some decent piccys.
I've got a bit that looks like tit repaces the current pivotty accelerator bit that goes through a hole in the manifold but cant seem to get it in a position when i can connect both the accelerator cable and the carb to it!
the diagram on page 9 looks like a goodun - though the linkages in that look bugger all like the bits Lee has given me!!
its part 26 on that diagram and back to the cable im having trouble with. The one in that pic looks kinda like the stromberg one that came off - which is nowt like the SU one im trying to fit!
Lee - have you mixed some jag bits up with this lot to confuse me? ;)

Its a ubiquitous bit of kit is the HIF44 / HIF6 as well as the landys it seems to be on most BHell cars of the period ( with occasional extra bits)SD1,montego,maestro,metro's,hot mini's, MGB, and I think some of the later 8 series Rovers so theres likely to be plenty of spares about - me I always had problems finding somebody who had the right needles and jets ( Rimmers do now ) on the odd few I played with.(1360 mini, MGB) might just be you have linkages off an SD1?

Ive got the right needles (tis why im fitting them over the strombergs!)
The dodgy geezer i got them off said they fitted on the 101! ;)
Are the parts for the LR linkage still available? could get them from beamends if so. can anybody tell me where i might find the parts book for the RR su carbs?

Failing beamends Have a look on the Rimmers site they seem to have a lot of kit mind you if someones not flogging it on fleabay I'll show my .. maybe not. Derek

I think ive worked it out now! my linkages are not the RR ones. maybe off an SD1?
