Subject: [Healeys] No acceleration
=20
Hi all
=20
I have a 100/6 with twin carbs and the old gallery head.
=20
This weekend I retuned the front carb which was running rich and got (I =
think!) both carbs running the correct mixture (according to Colourtune =
and the lifting pins).
=20
However, out on the test drive I get intermittently no/poor =
acceleration. In fourth gear at 2,000 RPM and 40 MPH, if I accelerate =
fairly hard, sometimes the revs and speed pick in unison, but at other =
times the revs will immediately shoot up to 4,000+ RPM with very little =
increase in speed.
=20
Any ideas what I might have managed to break?
=20
Many thanks
