Ok some im experiencing some popping on high revs due to fuel starvation, got a 1993 carb sprite so mechanical fuel pump.

What would you recommend as a cure?

[mars red mike]

How high revs are we talking?

[flanders56]

i dont have a rev read out but not that much... say 45mph in 3rd.

[mars red mike]

Any mods at all?

[flanders56]

stage 1 and k&n

[mars red mike]

Has it been setup properly on a R/R after the Stg 1 kit was fitted?

[flanders56]

nope it could do with that really Think that would do the job then?

Dude - you'll get the same answers everytime you post the same question -

>>PREVIOUS THREAD<<

You're previous thread posted about the same problem recieved plenty of answers and advice which in themselves were a repetition of another threads information you'd started.... - have you acted on any of it?

Get it put on a rolling road at Slark. It's not going to fix itself ever - it needs setting up properly - and wont run well until it has had this done.

I don't wish for this to sound rude so please don't take this as an offensive remark or an insult but people are offering up lots and lots of help and it just doesn't seem like you're listening to any of it!

[flanders56]

ive done every single thing that has been recommended accept take it to slark although it has been tuned and timing set up properly on a machine i guess it still needs to go to slark.

[Retro_10s]

Yes - It will need to go to Slark - If it is still giving you problems it hasn't been tuned properly - Don't take it to the garage you took it before.

What do they actually adjust on a rolling road?
what do they actually set up?

timing? idle speed? fuel nut?
i never got to figure out what they do to the mini...

[Retro_10s]

Timing - mixture - Needle profile, Idle speed.

Timing - mixture - Needle profile, Idle speed.

That's it?
isn't this something one can do at home with a tachometer and a pair of good ears ?

What else do you expect? there's not a lot more that's adjustable on a mini.

Yes you could get it somewhere near right - But it's something a computer can do to a degree of accuracy that Ears cannot.
