Rookie Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Unlikely that it is tuning bro, the car wouldn't have done that when it was running last so in theory it shouldn't do it now. I would concentrate on cleaning the carbs if they are as dirty as you say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unclejake Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 So all I need to do now is in the tuning as it splutters and dies when on the throttleRob Getting the carbs and jets clean is important. If the splutter happens when you progress from idle to mid throttle then you should adjust the idle mixtures (the four screws closest to the head). There is plenty of guides to that in the web - but your ignition system must be set up perfectly first. If it still does the splutter then you may need to look at jetting and venturi sizes, but that is bloody expensive and should be one of the last options. I assume you have a vacuum advance distributor but no vacuum supply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
