> The Right Tool for the Job

If you have ever noticed how difficult it is to find a spanner short enough, yet with jaws wide enough, to adjust the jet nut under the carburetor, then take heart from the knowledge that SU identified the problem and came up with a special spanner for the task. While being short to allow sufficient clearance to rotate it under the carburetor, there is still enough leverage available through the handle for controlled, gentle movement of the jet nut.

You may not need it now, but you'll certainly be glad of it when the occasion arises.

Practically every Mini owner can name the brilliant engineer responsible for our obsession. Many can name the man responsible for the rubber suspension spring. A goodly number know a fair bit about the engine's heritage and the man who came up with the extremely efficient cylinder head design. They account for the biggest chunks of the Mini's anatomy. But what about that other extremely simple yet hugely effective instrument that features so prominently when engine tuning occurs - the SU carburetor? A limited few can tell you what 'SU' stands for, extremely few have any idea of its concept and evolution. So let's put that right…Read More
