[spit runs poorly, too rich] Maybe the carb diaphragms gave out (if it's a stromberg-carbed car)? They seem to be a maintenance item. Do the pistons move evenly, and in reasonable amounts? Also, the float valve(s) may have gotten gummed up or stuck, which would cause VERY rich running. Also make sure the chokes aren't stuck. Randell |
