I have teamed up with Tony Olissoff this trip he has the F3 Brabham . This is photo of his engine . We were just going off to collecting area and his throttle is sticking . We both have a look and I find the nut is missing from the far end of the Down draft Webber that holds throttle spring . I’m sure you all know Webber’s have there own thread pitch and any hope of us having a nut were non excistant . Brain wave and I had a couple of plastic number plate nuts . Wound this on and we just got to collecting area on time and both had a good race . Now checking cars over after the race preping for next and Tony calls me over . Have a close look at photo the nut is resting right next to rocker cover . So the nut came of on last race Saturday .Ended up there and stayed all through first race Sunday . Miricle or what .
