I will look into that thanks , i noticed the carb and manifold were near freezing , very cold , As it is now it is running much nicer than it was , Unfortunatly for the car i cant touch it till next weekend as im starting my apprenticeship tomorrow , have an induction corse first ,

Errrr its grand to start when its cold but its a pig to start when its warm !!! Hopefully tuning will iron that issue out , my cousin said because of the bigger carb i may have to advance ignition slightly to get it to burn off fuel, and that that may be way im getting it hard to start it if its...

Seen as i changed the cylinder head should i have reset the valve clearance ?

So had it running for ten mins and was just about to atart tuning it and i got sidetracked and had to turn it off and leave it there , went back to it five mins ago and went to start it and overfueled it again , but leasson learned i know what im doing now ,

Yeah iv watched video's so i know how to tune it , just got to get it to starting, ran for 4/5 seconds today and that was it , Andy sounds right though , probably overfueled ( my bad i reakon ) then flooded so i couldnt start it , ill take another burst at it tomorrow , have to charge the...

Very Possible however it was starting first turn friday , evens when i came back to cold start , and it only ran for a few seconds today and cut , so it had to have a reason to cut in the first place ?

Thanks andy , Hmm , i guess im overlooking the fact if theres fuel coming from carb overflow in the first place maybe something is wrong with carb , its im pulling cold start and its atempting to start but not just firing ,

Errrrr :/ friday night went too well to be true !! Got home all set to start it warm it up and tune it , but it doesnt start , so the only thing i changed was fuel overflow , and iv a bad suspicion that what i thought was a fuel overflow back to tank may have been a vacuum , heres where i...

Exactly , there the kind of things you rather go wrong at low speeds than high speeds , i was gonna say youd be less likely to hear them at high speeds but you have as good as no exhaust so :p ...... All the same :p

Not to worry neil eventually she'll play nice :) she's just showing you all the weak points now so when your done itll all be good :D

Good to know thanks , i think i found what is an overflow back to petrol tank so once i verify that i can pipe it to that ,

Hahahahaha :p emmm :p iv seen some funny things :p but a throttle cable made out if cable ties iv yet to see :p Well i should get it tuned tomorrow evening if not sunday , But iv my first week of my apprenticeship next week and im away from home , so therell be nothing done then :(...

Except iv nothing to press on when i sit in :p the standard cable is now to short :p ( definitly not my fault ) :p

Nope its got no throttle cable lol :p gonna get some lawnmore throttle cable , also gotta but a fuel filter broke the one i had :p and im gonna have to bring another cable for cold start

Think adam fixed it :p thank you :D

Dont know :p still have to sort out a throttle cable :p

So i hadnt time to tune it , but i took a wuick video of it running at will upload it later !

Is it slightly misfiring or something ?

My cousin ( mg enthusiast ) just called up and says it seems good :p and he is knowledgeable and expierenced in this game :p
