Right now I'm trying to find the mxture screws on my dual carbs on my 73 MGB GT.

Please help!

It has Twin SU HIF-4 carbs

I found the mixture screws after hours of googling. I will post back with more questions though, as they arise.

I am pretty sure those are the same twin carb setups that my '75 rover 3500S had. Do you have the airflow meter to tune them with? I can also check to see if I have the twin SU tuning guide. I think I left it (along with the service manual) in the boot of the car when I got rid of it. I will check though.

There is a guide on mgbexperience.net that I'm using. I need to track down a guage. My dad says he has one but i have yet to find it

That guide is similar to the one I had. I could NEVER tune the carbs correctly without the air flow gauge. I still have mine but have not used it in a while. If you need it let me know. It's not anything fancy...

:pics: First car I ever worked on was a 1959 Austin Healey Sprite. Still pissed at my dad for selling it without asking me if I'd want to buy it.
