Hi, I put a post on this forum a few weeks ago about my 1.3SR nova. It starts to cut out as if it is running out of petrol, but there is petrol in the tank. It used to be when I was driving the car fast but now has got worse and does it at any speeds and is actually cutting out. I was told it could be fuel jets in the carb which were blocked but I have hadthe carb apart today and the fuel jets work fine. I was also told it could be the carb freezing due to lack of a hot air feed, but I have fitted one ofthese last week and it is still getting worse. Any ideas? I need toget it sorted as soon as. Cheers.

Yeah fuelfilters fine checked that, and the fuel pumps working, it was only replaced recently.I spent most of yesterday playing with it and it looks like the automatic choke is bust, but Idontknow if this would cause problems like what I have got.
