All 99H motors (998cc) in Oz came with 1.5" carb, type HS4.
Note- this doesn't mean it's still a 998- our Barney has a `99H', seems Mini Kingdom reco'd it and put a 1098 crank & pistons in while they were at it! :P

Yeah....those 1275s can be a pig to identify....I'll help if you have one....might take me a few years to identify it though, extended road test, that sort of thing.... :lol:

You can put something down one of the spark plug holes to measure the stroke length, and therefore determine the crank type.
