Haven't updated this thread for ages. Lots done and she was finally on the road this weekend!
Still lots of jobs to do but its so good to have her rolling. Sweet little car.
Anyone have experience of tuning Solex P40II's? I tried and have a synchronometer but can't find a YouTube vid that deals with this particular carb. There's a section in the manual but its not as easy as it makes out. As expected. Anyone have a copy of the complete 912 by Duane Spencer they could snap the carb tune section on for me?

Very good 2 page here on how to tune your 912

I use a the same meter as your for left right syncing. Jack's method of removing the plugs does work but I've shocked myself too many times.
If you cant get front/back synced using you might have worn carbs which are letting air through
