<p>Yeah, right! On the way home from the MOT I had to race a BMW from the lights, just to show him who's a pussy. I've never done a standing start with my track day tyres on before, but I managed to spin the wheels nicely. He ate my dust! (or maybe he wasn't racing)</p>
<p>The car stood unused for 10 months and my new garage had ventilation problems, so everything got damp. There was mould on the seats, steering wheel and carpets, so there might be corrosion in the carb. That's my excuse…</p>

This happens a lot on progressive choke carbs where you drive like a pussy so the second choke hardly ever gets used and the throttle shaft starts to corrode making the action stiff. Strip the carb right down and clean everything then carefully reassemble and check the action is smooth. If it gets left too long various parts of the mechanism wear badly and make the action worse. Long term solution don't drive like a pussy:))))

<p>I think I would try a thicker gasket or try lapping the flanges it looks like you are distorting the card body which is causing the binding.</p>
