Let me apologize now before anyone can make fun of me for having a single DFV carb setup on my '73 1.7.... Maybe someday in the future I'll man up and get dual carbs or even FI.
My problem is that the car idles fine, but when I stomp the accelerator, the car bogs down and loses RPMs. While idle, it takes a fair amount of bogging until it finally revs up. In gear, the car dies. My assumption is that the secondary valve in the carb isn't opening up and allowing more air in. I can't figure out how that valve even opens in the first place. I see the linkage and can open it by hand, but not through the accelerator pedal. Any suggestions? Thanks ahead of time |
