1of three carbs flood

[skeffer]

First thank you to all that helped getting my motor running. I changed the amp box to a coil and condensor and now the motor starts and runs great as long as I keep it choked when it is not choked it dies. It idles great and starts great tho. Carbs were cleaned and all the gaskets replaced. <br /> Also how much water should be comming out the the water output with the engine at idle before a water pump is replace

Re: 1of three carbs flood

Hmmm. Hi, Skeffer. It is more common that engines idle fine but wont run when turned up.<br /><br />My first reaction is that your engine is too lean when on the low speed circuit, but when it gets on the high speed circuit it has enough.<br /><br />I don't have your '71 in my book, so I don't know if you have adjustible low speed jets. If you do, back them out about half a turn and see what happens.<br /><br />Otherwise you may have a weak fuel pump, or you may not have adequately cleaned the low/middle speed circuits in your carbs.<br /><br />Good luck.

JB<br />Yes I do have low speed adjustments and will try to adjust them out a 1/2 turn and see what happens will post later with update.
