Hi all,

Well after i have completely reconditioned the carb, its not running that much better than before! After speaking to some 123 experts, they reckon if i can get my carb to set correctly with my 115 engine, ill be the first in the country!

Anyway, i have another related problem...

At the traffic lights sometimes, it randomly just cuts out, if i press my foot hard on the accelerator i can get it to come back, but it runs rough for a few seconds, then itll be ok untill the next time it idles...

It never does it at high revs...i went to oxford yesterday and was excellent on the motorway...

Ive got a feeling its fuel starvation (because if i accelerate i can save it from dying) and so something to do with the return pipe, maybe its returning too much?? Maybe i messed something up when putting the carb back together??

Theres no electronic fuel pump in my model, so that ruled out...

Any help much appreciated!

Jay
