idle problem!

<< < (3/4) > >>

hobbit:
The pump may be delivering some fuel, but not enough under load

If you have an electric one you can drop inline might be worth a try, or get someone to  turn the engine over with the pipe off the carb and check the flow out

If I keep bliping the pedal it keeps running ......but as soon as I stop it idles for 30ish secs then stalls.......It does sound like a fuel problem doesn't it ! but I just can't put my finger on it :oops:

James.Harwood:
Try replacing the Zenith (nasty things that leak more than a webber) with the SU 1.75"

Works well on mine, more power less leakage and yes, crap in the float chamber.

How long since the last rebuild of the engine?

Bobster:
Not sure when the engine was last in bits James! but I would consider the SU 1.75'' convertion have you got any more info on whats required? or any pics?

James.Harwood:
I will get pics at the weekend and send to you, got mine from ACR (see LRO) for about £400, worth every penny although fiddly to set up initially
