Ok, so I know I've posted this before, but I still cant figure it out, and I need to know all of the possible circumstances under which this condition occurs.
One of the throads on my dual carbs is excessively lout at speed. It sounds like pop-pop-pop. Any ideas? |

Ok, cool.
I checked the points and dwell angle very recently and they are to spec. I've also very recently adjusted the valves. So all i have to do is the timing, then. I guess my question has to do with ArtechnikA's post. QUOTE you're running about 28 degrees initial and 36 total. WAY TOO MUCH! The Haynes manual says that I should set it to 27 degrees advanced for the 1.7 engine. So is it really too much, or is it different with carbs? So which is right? I also should state that I have no vacuum advance. |
