Range Rover Blues:
But that would be far too easy :wink:

Seriously that's a fair point, Stroms aren't that bad when set up properly but the cost of a good pair of SUs is about the same as a S/H EFi system which is capable of delivering more power.

Both valid points, I was going down the carb balance route to start, but there is a few good drops of oil coming out of her, (nothing new I know).
The diaphrams are not split the needles are a bit worn, and if I am going to take the engine out I was thinking lets drop a good one in.

My mate was going to swap his 3.5efi out of his as he has just had a rebuild done on a 4.2 at JE engineering, which will be sweet, but maybe to good for a weekend every few weeks, so as much as I want his 3.5 I think he should leave it in, and do a new project with the 4.2, that's his call.

Its great to know you have help and advice around you on here, very much appreciated.

I know things are going to break, I just want to try and get the heart of the motor sorted as much as possible as work commitments are going to be increased shortly.

I did take her on her first off road today, well short bit of green lane and then some woods we found, and she went ok, the engine /carb is the last bit (for now) I need sorting so I hope it does not cost me much. :?

Budgie:
That's the good thing with setting up the carbs, fueling and timing - it doesn't cast anything, unless you get yourself a Gunson Carbalancer to assist.  :wink:
It's what I've used on both SU's and Stromberg's and seems to do the job. I think they are about £13 from most good auto parts shops.

zulublue:
Sending her in to a Carb Doctor tomorrow fingers crossed.
