Further on from my rough runing engine that would not rev out and had low
vacuum
readings, while preparing to remove carbs and manifold to check for leaks I
discovered the float in the front carb was full of fuel, this should not be
the
cause of my problems, but ordered a new float, popped it in and......well it
starts, with a bit of coaxing when cold, but now ticks over and revs out once
warm, don't know why the float should have affected this?. Now the runing and
reving engine is popping alot through the carbs and the exhaust, also using
the
lifting pins on the carbs only ever lowers the revs, ie too rich and no
adjustment seems to change this. I fell I'm getting closer but still need
help.
