What have you done today with your Austin Seven

Unless it's too low, Alan and the flow of fuel into the float chamber can't keep up with the amount of fuel the engine is using. Happened to me twice. Once at a Sprint on the IoM and once on a hill in Butts Quarry on a VSCC Derbyshire Trial. Both times a dripping carb had caused me to, incorrectly, lower the float level. Both times, fixed the drip but led to the engine repeatedly cutting out and then coming back as the fuel caught back up - kangaroo petrol style Sad
