Expensive but well worth it! You can do it for just over £160 think,
if you are prepared to wait and watch ebay for a while for the carb

Is there away of just fixing it instead of binning the whole thing and having the hassle of fitting a mon standard one?
What's price and availability like on an SU conversion ?
Is yours over reving aswell ? have you found out what the problem is ??

Thanks for all the help everyone.
