OKay- 70' 1.8L, with dueling Dellorto's 40mm.
Car runs sweeeet, perfect. Then starts running crappy. Hmph, thinks I. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Pointless ign, I check the rotor anyhow, and swap it. Test Drive, LOTS of pinging, and at 1/3 throttle or less the car just LUGS does not even try to accelerate below 2500RPM. get the RPM's up and it starts pulling. Smells funny.. ..weird oilt smell. ..not burning. Just oily. Any guesses.. .? Not *quite* sure I understand it yet. But I found what seemed to be the problem. -Bob O |

Hmm hope it stays fixed. But I bet there was some gunk in a idle jet anyway. 2500 RPM is about where the mains start to kick in.
I was venting each head to a Carb. Worked fine. Gunked up idle jets. |
