Have a look at my engine.

Runs ok now since I changed spark plugs, ht leads, new battery and cleaned carbs up.

Let me know your thoughts :-)


Thanks to everyone for advise on how to fix my poor engine.


Cheers

To be 100% straight, that sound like it's running on about 2 1/2 cylinders.

It should be as crisp as a new fiver.

Sorry

Get the carbs balanced and the airbox on, I'd be surprised if it doesn't run much better.

Hi

Sorry but as mentioned your engine is sadly not running worth a *uck

click the linky to hear one running well in a kit car.

good luck with getting it running properly.

Thanks guys :-)

It's definatly better than before when it wouldn't Start :-)

Ye I know it's not running great but small steps etc.

Carbs need a new diaphram in 1 and as davie said it needs balancing n a airbox making.

I'll keep u all informed :-)
