Hello.
My Berli just failed its first MOT in my 3 year ownership...
A teeny bit of play in a lower ball joint - fair enough - but it also failed on CO emissions by 0.07%!
Ok, this should be easy to tweak out, but looking back over my previous MOT results, I find that the max permitted CO limit for my car on it's last MOT was 4.5%, but on this occasion the max limit was stated as being only 3.5%. I notice they also dated my car this time as being 1977, whereas it was actually first registered in '75.
I've tried a Google, but get far too many returns! So, does anyone know what the correct max CO% limit is for cars of 1975 vintage?
Can you also confirm that the 'volume control screw' on the Weber (32/36) carb adjusts the AIR going through it, so turning it ANTIclockwise will weaken the idle mixture, and so presumably reduce the CO output?
Many thanks.
(PS. Who does the immaculate dark-blue, H-reg'd Cabrio I came across in Barnstaple belong to? I noticed a MOC 2008 sticker on it, so I presume a current member! BEAUTIFUL...)
