<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions on what would cause a Solex
(late style with only a couple thousand miles on them) to run
fine on full choke, but be unable to stay running with the
choke off? I figure something may be blocked. For reasons
beyond my control the car received almost no use for a couple
years. When started occasionally it ran fine until this
month. I siphoned out the old fuel and refilled with new gas
plus some dry gas to be sure. I blew out the fuel line,
replaced the fuel filter, and removed the carbs and cleaned
the jets, etc. The one thing I didn’t remove is the float
bowl cover because it was stuck and I didn’t want to ruin the
gaskets unless I had replacements in hand.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The engine has only a few thousand miles on
a complete rebuild. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions will be greatly
appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
