Title: AC engined Aceca manual
Post by: kicksey on April 09, 2023, 14:56:51
Does anyone have a manual I could borrow or buy?  I have been unable to find one and the club is out of print.  Happy to collect (if you are not too far away from Alton Hampshire,  or will pay postage etc

Thanks
Chris

Hello Robin,
you mean your copy of the AC manual, or you wrote your own version of the manual?

i found this link on your website very informative, but the part on float chamber needle gap setting i belive is different for CLB egines AUC 700 Carburators.

No
I have an early AC Company copy of the manual which was 10/-shillings !The article you refer to is a club article which i updated with comments from our now knowledge! I also have an early saloon manual & the only PVT information which was published by a pre war motor magazine! I think the PVT article is on the Club Web site ! By the way these articles do not apply to my new engines as they are modified with current bearing technology & generally improved lighter parts particularly the rotating components.
