I have a 2.0 original 6 engine upgraded too a 2.2 with E cams ,I had the carbs rejetted because she was apparently running to lean ,now when accelerating the car splutters and there’s a vagueness when accelerating at speed allmost as though it’s being pulled back (if that makes sense )she’s also she pops a lot at speed ,any advice would be great
Thanks Brian |

Read Paul Abbot’s excellent article on Weber carburetors on his Performance Oriented website. Be sure to check your timing and valve lash are correct before fiddling with the carbs however. Plugged idle jets are often a problem with Weber carbs and today’s ethanol laced fuels. If you have access to the equipment, knowing if it’s running lean would help. Also be sure to check your accelerator pump volume if it’s perhaps going lean when you’re accelerating.
