Hello DUCKIE !! 0oohh, you are AWFUL, but I like you !! That could catch on, you know. Have a look in Hitchcocks catalogue---they give all the recommended jets for the various different scenarios you are likely to find. NEDDY---raising the needle by itself won't alter the main jet which is the one most likely to need richening eg at full throttle to avoid overheating from a weak mixture. I would think the settings given by our hosts for just adding the S & M free-flow air filter will be near the mark ie almost equivalent to running with no filtering at all which is were our DUCKIE is at the moment.

i finally found the catalogue (i'm sure the wife hid the dam thing so i wouldn't squander the retirement fund) and ordered the jets etc the should do the trick (i ordered all of em just incase i change the silencer) ...runnin an enfield ....tis like dating a bird outa yer league ..ya really want it ..she lets ya hanging ...and just when ya look like yer giving up she gives ya the oul glad eye ..common says she you know ya want it....
talking of silencers ..has any one out there ever tried to (like in the old days )drilled or removed the baffles from the stock unit.....

Hello again-------------- both GRUNDA 12 and myself have removed a section from the rear part and then re-welded to shorten the overall length. This improves the overall look plus reducing the back-pressure a little and adds a pleasant "thump" to the idling note. You will have to change the jetting---mine was by 10% approx. That "Long-Tom" silencer is divided into 3 chambers with 3 perforated pipes feeding and removing the gasses, and is very robustly made-----I doubt if the old trick of just ramming a steel rod down there will actually achieve anything.
