Last days with my B before I head back to the god forsaken cold of the north and she's gone gutless. Runs good on the low end but once it hits around 3k rpm its like someone is pulling on the E brake and it quits accelerating beyond 3800 to 4k in first and about 3500 in second.
So far I've double and triple checked the timing. set currently at about 15 degrees. Distributor was rebuilt and new vacuum advanced installed.
Carb was checked over and a new diaphragm was installed as the old was quite flimsy. High needle was set flush with the air valve.
Only recent addition was a K&N air filter and it did run fine for a bit afterwards. Shows same symptoms with filter removed.
Also the auto choke started to leak gasoline and was replaced with another used one. It seems to be functional and works well.
It is the ZS carb
Any one have any ideas as I'm Stumped.
