There are lots of threads in the archives on how to do this, starting from a simple 5-minute procedure which gives most of the benefits…

The quintessential post on the subject:

[E-Type] Five-minute Strangleberg fix?

Roger Los has an XJ6 as well as an E-type and was asking on the XJ forum about the Strangleberg setup those cars were inflicted with instead of twin 2’’ SUs in the rest of the world. It reminded me I’m not sure if I’ve read, or mentioned myself, the dead easy partial fix I’ve done on two of my own Federal E-types. I’ve read lots about removing the throttle plates, removing everything and plugging the holes etc but don’t recall this ultra- quick reversible option. Apologies if it has alrea…

I did the 5-minute fix and it worked fine. Later, when I had the manifold off, I removed the secondary completely which is ideal.
