you said mild cam but what cam is it, is it a kent cam,the fr31 is the mild road cam from kent cams or is it an fr32 fr33 fr34, etc? or is it a burton cam? do you have a make and model number etc

is the weber a down draft, twin choke carb, if it is it will more than likely be the 32/36 DGAV carb or are the carbs side draft?

Hi there

I used to run a webber twin choke 32/36 on my pinto which is a stage 3 with fr32 cam, as long as the carbs are jetted to suit the engine then you should be fine as mine used to run no problems.

runs on tick over revs kind of alright when its stood still then when under load it just dies take your foot off pedal and it ticks over again its a brand new carb the guy who built engine says who wont do any more and says engine is fine and blames carb fast road cars who i bought carb off says its the right carb and sent me another one out in case so took it to another garage they say its down to timing but nothing will match up so dont now what else to do or to take it to

Could be faulty ignition or bad timing set up. Should be set to 8deg advance on a std dizzy with your cam.

Either that or its not getting enough fuel to feed it under power, worth checking your fuel feed is clear.

Rest assured there wont be much wrong with it.

Where are you, sure someone local to you can pop over and have a look.
