Dellorto carb problem
Posted: Sun Mar 11, 2007 7:53 am
HI,
I have just refitted my carbs back on my Elan fter stripping them down, cleaning them (not bead blasting, just pertol and thinners) and replacing all the seals..
It now appears that the car is only running on the front two cylinders only (if I pull the leads off the back cylinders there is no difference to the way the engine runs...badly.
I have a little colortune so I know the problem is not electrical.
I have opened up the float chamber and there is some fuel in the chamber (I did replace the valve and adjusted the float level.
Before I fight with the nuts and remove the carbs off the car (and skin off my knuckles), does anybody have any suggestions.... please
Thanks
Carl
