need detailed pics of '75 midget fuel and cooling...

The PO had replaced the Stromberg with a worn-out set of HS2's and, in the process, rigged the cooling and fuel systems to suit the new setup. Now I am trying to replace them with the original ZS carb and am having trouble finding where all the hoses and connections go. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

P.S. Yes, I have consulted the Haynes manual and found absolutely no help there.

thanks
 
Why back to the ZS? The are notoriously under performers. Consider rehabing the SU's.

Having never ownd a Zenith on anything, I can't really say, but apparantly they worked good on a lot of other vehicles including Volvos and Jags!! I don't know if a Midget has the same inhereant problems as the 'B equipped with a Zenith, anyway, I guess each to his own!!

I don't see anything wrong with the zenith, so I'm going with it.

I'm looking more for some close-up photos of engine bays where I can tell where the vacuum lines, fuel lines and coolant hoses go.

thanks guys
