MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Good morning gentlemen - any ideas where I might be able to source one of these in NZ?
Have tried Landroverparts.co.nz - waiting on landroverspares... any other ideas? Thanks.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
I'm guessing MS80's are the original Carbs.
Broaden your search. There are loads of these tools around.
I got some for my Rover SD1 years ago.
These same tools are used by many British cars, e,g Rover, Triumph, Jag Etc..........
Some will turn up easy enough
Have Fun

Ah, I thought they may be specific to the Stage 1.
Thanks. Will keep hunting around.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Thanks for that - thought I believe that the Stage 1 has the CDSE carb in it - later model?
Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
I'm pretty sure it's the correct tool but the description the seller has written is all wrong.
Here is another one for 175CD V8 Rover engines 1982-1985.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Yeah, looking at the service manual, and his image - they look identical.
Have purchased. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Hrm... ok folks - how do I go about definitely identifying what Zenith I have in there? The hexagonal tool doesn't seem to be going into anything - but want to confirm what tool I am meant to be using before I push anything.
Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Look on the top of the carb. You should see 175 CD and that needs the tool to hold the diaphragm so you can adjust the needle height with the tool. Otherwise the adjustment might rip the diaphragm.
I have one 175 CD-2 that has the mixture adjustment below the carb and needs no tool.
Cheers.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Is the tool you use got a hex end, or a bladed end?
Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
There are two sorts, mine is the one on the right in this picture
The bottom has a slot that matched a blade in the carb.
Cheers.

Re: MS80 Carberettor Adjustment Tool
Yep. One on the right is the one I need.
Where did you get yours? Seems to be a bit of a challenge locally...
