Hello all,
I'm having troubles with the engine. It seems to struggle to start, but sometimes it will start with ease. While driving, it will feel bogged down.Also sometimes while driving, it will lose revs and cuts out when ever i try to use the throttle.
If i start the car straight away after this has happened, it struggles to keep going. If i pick the revs over 3000 it will try and die. One time this happened i called the AA, he told me it was because i didn't have a air filter attached. Since i have attached it this problems still happens. But if i use my hand to restrict the airflow (without air filter on) it will rev normal, and sounds a lot better.
When i brought it, the car did sound a little bit rough (like it had a high lift cam, but it didn't. I know x1/9 cams have a high lift already as stock, but this sounded stupidly high lifted)
Since buying the car i have fitted this items:
Cambelt
Points
Dizzy cap
Rotor arm
Spark plugs
HT leads
Overhauled the Weber
CSC 4 branch + silencer
Any help/information on this matter will be greatly appreciated!
