  1. Andrew Turner (the SU and Stromberg man) cleans carbs after stripping by first soaking in a bucket of cellulose thinners for a few hours. This is followed by a deep clean in an ultrasonic bath, using a suitable detergent solution. It brought up my old SUs like new. Nigel
  2. Here's a NOS bulb holder but look at the price: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363963254955?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Uf3T-_U5TnC&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=_AAX02K1SFq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY £25 plus postage! Nigel
  3. I've also had problems with modern repro rear bulb holders, the quality is poor. Mine were improved by carefully bending the spring contacts to press a little harder on the bulb terminals. Connecting extra earth wires to the bulb holder bodies can help too. As for a better source of replacement bulb holders, I'm not aware of one. Perhaps there's some new old stock lingering somewhere??

  4. I had a similar experience when I signed up for a trade card 10 or more years ago. Nigel
