Hello there everybody, i could use some help;

I have a 190 carb 2L and it has done 173K, but runs fine - mainly? - When idling at a junction (or when ever) with the clutch down the idle speed will drop and normally the car stalls. Also when there is heavy electrical load the revs will also drop. sometimes its fine however more often than not its just plain evil :twisted:

One more thing, there is often hesitation when accelerating through the low rev range 1000 - 2000..

Can any one help does any one know how the idle is controlled on a carb (strom 175)? Does any one think that using a engine flush to clean out carbon deposits will help or will it harm my old engine??

HELP!!

Thanks guys
