hi, im having what i think is a slight problem..could just be me being picky
but anyway here we go... basically i was having some trouble with high revs, petrol small etc, all the usual stuff. turned out to be blocked o-ring, so i replaced that, everything was a little better, but still reved quite high or really unevenly. i then noticed that the choke wasnt actually operating properly as it did not have any resistance when i pushed on the flap. tested the choke unit itself, everything seemed to be working
sucked as hard as i could on the pull down unit...nothing happened. luckily i had a spare 2e2 in teh garage so tested the pull down on that and it worked so i swapped them over. easy. the problem seemed to get better, thought everything was solved. i had also bought myself that haynes carb manual, very handy. so i decided to go through the overhaul and adjustment procedures to get everything back to the proper settings. did the idle cam positioning and all that stuff (using a nicely bodged setting tool made from a piece of wood and a screw
). after doing all that i started playing with the idle control valve and CO screw, finding it very hard to get a good combination of the 2. the one i did find it ran nicect was if the control valve was screwed fully in meaning that the pushrod was as far out as it would go (didnt think that it could be right to be fully adjusted either way) but even with it fully adjusted the revs now seem maybe too low? and the throttle plate adjusting screw doesnt actually touch the pushrod
and after all that... there seems to be a large flat spot on acceleration, meaning i can floor it, revs seem to hesitate and are a bit jumpy and then slowly build up till i can feel the kind of power band starting to pull me along. i dont know wether or not this is just normal and i should be a little gentler on the throttle
or there is some unlying problem i cant seem to work out. im only 18 and lack of experience it making it difficult to tell
bit of an essay haha,
any help would be much appriciated.
also if anyone has got a weber 32/34 theyd like to get rid of cheap il be happy to take it
