Duncan, mesh doming will take place next week, when the carb has to come off for a full set of washers etc for the jet, to be ordered from Burlen at 09.01 tomorrow. Meanwhile the full service reveals another question. Tyres long since all Longstone, thus no punctures, cracked sidewalls etc. But seeing them stacked together whilst brakes were checked, nipples greased and springs lubricated, I am now worried that I have been running pressures too high. Wear is not even, centre treads notably more worn. Steering and king pins far from perfect but better than many, so with no evident asymmetrical front cover wear I have done diagonal swapping for a few years. Will this provoke a Sunday morning chorus saying that 24 front and 26 rear were far too high pressures?
What have you done today with your Austin Seven
