Whilst setting up the carburettors on our 1956 Jensen 541 here at the Bridge Classic Cars HQ, our workshop manager John noted that there was an air leak on the link pipes, so the carburettors were removed from the car and the link pipes were cleaned and sealed. The original cord seal was still fitted.

It was noted that the wheels were pointing in different directions. So John checked the front wheel alignment and found it to be 2 degrees out. The adjustment was seized so the link rods were removed and freed off to allow adjustment to be made.
