Sorry, missed this post. I mean the engine actually cut out/misfired after putting my foot down. Seems to have stopped happening now for some reason which makes me think it could have just been a dodgy HT lead.. But yeah as mentioned, it could also have been the fuel pump or the carb being slightly wrong for the car since it came from an early E30..petroscf wrote:Sorry for my bad english, but what do you mean by "cutting out at high speeds" ?Reck wrote:Better MPG.. Cutting out at high speeds though. That may yet be traced back to the fuel pump though.
You mean that the better economy mentioned above ("better MPG") is cut out at high speeds, or do you mean that the car cuts out in high speeds, so this equals to worse performance?
If it is the 1st, then this is not bad, it is more sincere IMHO, this means that this carb can give you economy if want, or performance if you prefer..
It would be much worse if you had worse economy at low speeds, and also worse performance at high speeds...
All this is a question, as I just ordered a weber carb from Mark and I am trying to foresee what to expect when I fit it on the car...
Either way, it was only an intermittent problem that sorted itself eventually and the benefits far outweighed it. The car turns over first time every time now with the weber even in the freezing cold.
