John John, I downloaded the document from stuart and made a pdf in order to save it - worked for me on W10. A copy is on your PM list. regards Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John L Posted March 18 Author Report Share Posted March 18 Thanks to both the last posters, it has opened the document, but its actually the program I wanted to open, as you can choose the engine size, chokes, and then it gives a starting point for the jet sizes that I'm really after, thanks for your help. The info I'm trying to get is a base line jet sizes for a Peugeot 205 Rallye eu spec, 40DCOM, there are 2 of them, its an amazing pocket rocket 1274cc with 103hp and 750 kg! I'm sure the petrol has changed since 1988 when it came out, so wanted to find, I think now getting info from the 205 Rallye forum in France and finding out what the use currently. Ive already tried Webcom UK and the Carb Hospital with no luck. Thanks again for your work! John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Why not Email him and ask him if he can supply it in a compatible format, It looks like it might have been written in WXP Dave@DVAPower.com Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Just tried it on XP and it does run, but a bit clunkey. Charlie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
