Hi
Just installed a brand new single port manifold as my old one had a crack in it
It's on a 1300 and I'm running a H30/31 carb
I've put everything back together and now the accelerator pump arm is pretty much hard up against the fan shroud!
Have I put everything back on incorrectly? Or is there some way to adjust the fan shroud away from the carb? Any tricks or mods??
Thanks for your help
Matthew

Yeah I put them side by side, and I couldn't seeany difference
There must be a tiny amount of difference with some of the bends

I managed to massage it into place a bit better
But there is still a bit of contact with the acc arm at full push
I might tighten the arm up a bit so I'm still getting the mist squirt possible
Then if all else fails, I'll grind a little off the acc pump arm bracket bit

I dremelled the hell outta it, so now it doesn't foul on the fan shroud
But I still can't get it to squirt enough straight away. It squirts enough further along the stroke, but just not quite enough initially
Any ideas???
