Hi, cured fuel leak, but
I need full choke to start hot or cold.
If i turn the tickover to 3k it "ticksover"
Tried mixture screws everywhere between 2 and 5 turns out, no change
fine above 4k, but will cut out when coming down from hi revs.
Im running 32mm cvs bellmouths dynapro airbox 103 mains blocked off air correctors, full micron.
Fuel pump works ok.
Any ideas?
No idle and poor below 4k

I had a similar problem, only I had crap in my tank - water and rust! I also had a blocked fuel filter

Plugs new, diaphragms ok, the needles look like dynojet with clip on 3rd from top.
I blocked off the air corrector at dyno request a while ago.
Im sure the problem is in the idle circuit, she starts instantly on choke but wont otherwise.
When the choke is off she stumbles up to 4k then flies and runs ok as long as revs dont drop below 4k

I set the tickover to 3k, starts without choke and runs fine everytime!

Re: No idle and poor below 4k
Jeez, I'd like to see you filter in traffic with a tickover like that And changing gear isn't going to be exactly smooth. You can't bodge it with a tickover that high, you need to sort the underlying problem.marti wrote:I set the tickover to 3k, starts without choke and runs fine everytime!
