1986 City E 998cc
1.5in SU
Engine chokes on any hard acceleration without the clutch engaged. It will eventually get to the higher revs but really doesn't like it as soon as you put the pedal to the floor.
It will crawl with the clutch engaged but as soon as the pedal is depressed too much it will choke and usually die if i persist.
I have replaced the Vac on the Dizzy as the previous one didn't hold pressure when sucking on it. Stole it off a new Dizzy, looked like a 45D. (Guessing a different type of vac wouldn't have fit my dizzy if it was the wrong type)
I have set the timing. 8 Degrees BTDC.
Mixture has been set using a colourtune. I also had a look on a emissions tester to double check.
Any suggestions to what i should do next?
I'm thinking a strip down of the carb see if i find any issues with that? Or a blown head gasket? (It's had a few of those..)
Cheers,
Adam
