Hi All
Today i was out in my Landy which has a Rover 3.5L V8 lump. I lost most of the power and could not get over 30mph. After investigation i had fuel running out of the float overflow pipe on me left carb (i have 2 on this engine). So obviously i had lost one half of the engine. Does anyone have any ideas of what could be the cause? I am a novice with anything to do with engines soplease be gentle.
Could i be right in thinking the float maybe stuck? The engine starts ok then goes lumpy after a few seconds and then fuel starts to run out of the hose.
Many Thanks
Mark
