Cheers Lads. As usual, the haynes manual is totally wrong. I had the jet all the way up. Now just waiting for big end shells n I'll be back OTR. Sound! |

Early fastbacks have the 150 CDS carbs and later ones have 150 CD-3 (not sure when they changed over).
If you have the later 150 CD-3 carbs you have to adjust the needle instead of the main jet. You need a special tool to adjust the needle on these.
It's easy to tell the difference; the 150CDS has the brass jet adjuster under the float bowl (number 6 on the manual page that Thomas posted) the later 150 CD-3 has a flat cover instead (the jet is fixed).

There's a lot of explanation so I hope you can read it on the picture!
This is a copy of a page from the sunbeam alpine SV owners manual, should be the same...
