I use the same tires, Sumitomo HTR 200s, and I think they are great for the price. I run them on a MIata and an MGB. 17 YO tires? You're lucky you didn't have a blow out. I buy inexpensive tires as I

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak and the carbs need new throttle bushings. Tighten the carbs down to the manifold and spray some WD40 on it and the throttle shafts and listen for a speed change. If

Most of these carbs are mismatched already and I have yet to see that much of a difference between different piston/dome combinations that would cause sputtering or backfiring and I've inspected and

The domes were probably not centered correctly when screwed down. This has happened to me and that's why I always check to make sure the pistons move smoothly during and after the domes are tightened

Start all over and rewire it correctly. I bet you'll find a wire from the solenoid going directly to the switch and spliced into the harness somewhere. Get a schematic and trace the wires. Mike

Are you sure it's black and not blue? check your plugs. If black it's definitely too rich. screw the nuts all the way up. in a worst case scenario drop the needles down further to lean the motor out

NYC is a bargain for gas - 'only' 2.99 and this morning it was 2.79. BP is the cheapest as I have seen gas going for up to 3.79. That's for regular as all my cars take regular including the Datsun an
