MG TD TF 1500 - Tickler Pin

The WM clearly shows the TF1500 carburettor with a tickler pin on the RHS to help check the mix.

Not on mine!

Were they not on the later versions, or do I have to start stripping down to see what the identification marks are?

My late TF 1500 # 8986, XPEG 2899 has the tickler pins on the right side

Not unusual for these to have been filled in. Do yours appear to be?

Bruce,
He is taking about the pin in the body of the carb that lifts the piston, not the one in the float bowl cover that pushes the float down

Some H4 carbs have this pin.
Don Harmer

Thanks Don. I did not know they had a lifting pin on the TF;s.
