Hi there,
I am in a slight predicament and hope to find some help. I have a Uno Cento, stay in South Africa, and I am giving her a service before going away for a while. I have done almost everything on the vehicle myself and haven't had serious problems before, but this time I decided it was time to do the carburettor as I'm sure it's never been done. I bought a kit for it, Weber 32 TLF, and took the whole thing apart cleaning it etc. I then replaced all the old gaskets and stuff and upon replacing it found a problem. The car started for a few seconds put then died and when I had a look there was fuel all over the carb and surrounding area...
I had my girlfriend try and start it while I had a look but all that happened was fuel was bubbling from one of the copper type screws, the more she tried the more came out until it ran over. I have a Haynes manual but it doesn't have the Weber 32 TLF in it, so I am uncertain about calibrations. I'm sure I put it back together in the right way, I just think I have to set it now that it's clean.
Please if there is anyone with information on this Carburettor I would really appreciate it. I think it might be the float that isn't set correctly but it's the first time I've done a carb so I don't want to mess it up, hopefully I haven't already done that.
Thanks
