Okay, I thought I had this sucker whipped, but I need help. When I bought the car it had dual weber 44s, a leaky 1.7, and poor breaking. This is what I have done in the past few months:
Porsche Flywheel Clutch Pressure Plate Pilot bearing Release Bearing Shifter bushings Tore down engine to case, all new seals. Tranny input shaft seal Tranny console seal New rubber mounts Reman front calipers Resurfaced rotors New pads New front hardlines New soft lines 19mm Master Cylinder Rebuilt pedal assembly Flushed & bled system Dual dellorto frd34b carbs (rebuilt) Alum fuel line in tunnel CB performance 3.5psi pump & filter Ball joints Turbo tie rods That's all I can think of right now, I've done a lot. Right now the engine is much louder than it was before, it sounds like a diesel even though I set all the valve clearances. The engine starts up quickly and idles smooth though, before it took half a can of start fluid to get it going and wouldn't idle. But the biggest problem is when driving. Any moderate throttle you give it, the car bogs down. I've played with the carbs the best I can, can't really tell what I'm doing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I tried to check the timing, but I couldn't see the mark at all even though it;s clearly there. I need some in person help before I go mad.
