Think Twiss has given the SU reliability argument good backing by carrying on with no screws in it!

Ha ha, if only it were loose instead of completely missing all 3. I'm amazed he never lost the dash pot off! :hahaha:

The engine suction when revving must suck the dashpot on haha.
and yep I will definitely vouch for Su reliability! I managed to keep my 1.3 engine working with an Su when it was running on 3 cylinders; headgasket gone, piston ring gone as well
carried on for 6 months and I was driving it between 30 and 80 mile trips to work
it wouldnt even start with the aisin carb on it
