Picture of the day, nothing special but a nice result. vehicle was recovered into us, running badly, stalling, bad or non starting. it came with another set of carbs and manifold in the boot for us to fit as all the internet experts had said later HIF6 carbs are so much better, it was also suggested it would need new ht leads (it didnt) . we fitted a new set of plugs, i repaired the distributor base plate, fitted a working vac advance module and set the ignition timing which was ridiculously over advanced, it then drove much better, setting up the mixtures, idles and fast idles, and it got even better, now driving really well, the owner was amazed at the difference, and those HIF6 carbs? still in the boot!
with jobs like this it always makes me think, surely whoever was last in the fiddling realized they were making it worse? and would of stopped, rather than making even more adjustments and it even
more wrong??
