I have a problem I'm struggling to diahnose.
It happens when gently accelerating or travelling slowly (so light throttle) particularly in low gears. The car starts to jerk/kanagaroo. The solution is to dip clutch/raise throttle, and perhapos change up a gear. If I accelerate harder the problem isn't there.
My suspicion is the carb setup. I have twin H6s which I rebuilt (leaking fuel) and then set up after doing the timing and valve gaps. Getting the balance exactly right was fiddly, and then when doing the mixture I struggled to tell the reaction to the lifting pin. I may be doing myself a dis-service but I think the mixture could be rich or lean.
Question is how do I tell, other than trying to leave the choke out a little.
Or am I being paranoid, and the problem is elsewhere. Any ideas?
Regards
John
