You say 'anaemic, do you mean running with a weak mixture as indicated by the plugs and stumbling on acceleration or just lack of power? If weak have you checked for things air leaks round the manifo

Paul, I've driven this car as a daily driver for the past 14 years, and thought the car was running strong till I changed carburetors ( ease of working on t the carb's if needed prompted that change)

OK, so the problem started when changing from HIFs to HSs. HSs are marginally preferable from an owners point of view, and you should get the same performance out of both. After everything else make

MG distributors used two methods of ignition (timing) control. One is manifold vacuum controlled - off the intake manifold, the other is 'ported' - the take off is just outside the throttle butterfly

Not so, this is an oft repeated error. Apart from at idle and fractionally off it the resulting vacuum advance is identical through the throttle range. The carb port is not outside butterfly (that is

Check to make sure you did not install the air filter to carb gaskets incorrectly. If they are upside down they block the vacuum port to the piston which will make the car really sluggish. Juat a tho

I had this happen at highway speeds several days after I'd converted to oval foam air filters on my HIF's. When I removed a filter, a bolt that holds the alloy back plate adaptor (and the gasket) in

I would also make sure the linkages are tight so both throttle butterflies are opening. It's an easy thing to forget. (please don't ask :-) Cheers, Dave Ambrose ______________________________________

Getting these wrong (either the inlet connected to the vent or the vent blocked) is usually immediately obvious as severe flooding. PaulH. -- Original Message -- _____________________________________
