Hi guys
I'm having problems with the idle on my 1.3SR engine. I've recently put the engine into my 1.2L along with a few other mods such as AST2 cam, Janspeed 4-2-1 exhaust manifold and a mongoose exhaust system. Although I'm thinking that the problem is most probably with my new 32/34 weber carb although I could be wrong.
The engine only seems to be able to idle comfortably at 1250 RPM, any lower than that and it becomes really lumpy, drops to about 700 RPM then dies. I have tried setting mixture and idle speeds in various positons and have tried a number of different jet sizes but there has been no difference at all.
I have also fitted a recon dizzy from Delco as the old one was looking pretty shaged but in the end made little difference.
Any suggestions welcome.
Cheers
