TR2/3/3A TR3A 5000 rpm idle

Share this page

Ed,
I just put a reply on the "generator spring" post, as it seems to cover this subject too.
I fiddled about with my carbs this morning and the cam only needs to move the fast idle arm up by less than a millimetre to increase the revs by about 500rpm. I certainly feel that I would like to increase the idle speed, but not the mixture while the car is warming up. Maybe that shows that my carburettors need adjusting.

Tom, I almost posted that you should check for the presence of a twig between the rear throttle stop and the throttle bar, but figured that you had already performed a twig inspection.

I'm glad you solved the problem!
