I have recently purchased a 1979 Spit with 40 dcoe Weber, but otherwise stock.
The car starts well and runs fine at very small throttle openings then misses and splutters as I try to gently accelerate.
The vacuum advance has been disconnected but a strobe shows the weights in the distributor are not stuck, the charcoal canister has been removed and a manifold fitting has been sealed by threading a bolt into the end of a rubber hose.
I have checked jets, chokes, air correction jets and emulsion tubes against Tegler and other internet sources and all now correct.
Any help appreciated! Simon. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nopity.gif
