I tested the fuel pump ( undid the fuel line and started the car - fuel came out) after that I removed the jets one either side of the carby and they were OK , Should I remove the jets inside the carb and test ??

The start and stop sounds like a needle and seat problem or a float level problem . More like a needle and seat because it eventually refills the bowl enough to start. Haydn

I had a good look to try and find out whats going on And Colt I reckon you've hit it on the head, ( Ive got some gunk in the fuel tank ) I undid the fuel line just before the filter that's before the fuel pump and stuck my air gun up the fuel line and blew the @#$& out of it. Problem fixed. for a little while any way, so now I'll remove the fuel tank and clean it out. Thanks for the help Griffo |
