I got a mk 1.2 Carb
I think the Idleing jet is blocked and i've had to turn the idleing up alot to keep the car ticking over, it's resulted in pretty bad over fueling, can smell petrol all the time. I think the whole carb just needs stripping and cleaning
can't be arsed paying a garage to clean it, so how easy is it with the use of a haynes manual ? any perticular things to be careful of ?
Also, my exhuast is blowing quite alot and a liquidy black residue is coming out of it. I.e if u park infront of a car and rev it for a while the car's bumper behind will be smeared with this black crap. I presume this is all related to the over fueling problems !?
