ARRRGGGHHHH!
I got one of them webber 32/34 carbs on 2day, i thought mint, gonna fly!
Well it did, for the first 15-25 miles, then she started spluttering, and died, i spent all night fiddling on with the mixture, idle speeds & jets, all to be told the carb had frozen!
Well then, i was told to let her tick over so she gets really hot, then use her, this was fine, for a while...
I was waiting on my pizza, in the car, on tick over, when suddenly the revs went off the scale, i mean there was nothing there, the battery light came on & she sounded like she was gona die, but she didnt, she was goin up & down, i got whiplash i'm sure!
So i waited in a car park, revvin & the temp went half way & the fan kicked in, so i thought, ah it must be warm enough now...
Was it sheite!
Every time i came to a junction, or even came off the throttle she wud cut out, the only thing i could do was full throttle, even that was iffy, she would go, but not as well as she has done.
If anyone has any ideas, or if u have had the same problem & fixed, please let me know, cos i need to use the car!!!
Cheers NovaBods!
