Simon - do you have HS-4s as fitted, or HD-6s?  my first thought is I never
had to center the jets on my tri-carb, so I'm not entirely sure whether it
can be done on the car. 

 

A first thought would be to wonder how all three jets would have gotten out
of alignment? I would check the needles for alignment and wear first, before
digging into the jets.

All the best,

I'm told that the jets on my HD6s are not quite correctly centred. The
pistons do not fall fast enough nor with a satisfactory "click". I have
three of them in my MkII BT7. Do I have to take the carbs out or can it be
done in situ? Not a lot of room....

Simon
