Brett, Sounds like classic symptoms of a blown needle/seat. You should be able to pick up a new one for the 32/36 from Dynotune in Belco and even Autopro at Belco have a fair collection of weber bits.

I kept it going but only with lots of revs and when i did this smoke started pouring from the exhaust. i've checked the oil and water and there is no caramelisation (like wen you blow a head gasket) but even after the engine is stopped the carbie floods itself almost dumping the entire contents of the float bowl into both barrels of the carbie. it cant be the idle as i screwed it way out so that the car wont go close to running because of the lack of fuel. i am also running a standard mechanical pump. the car has only just made it hope though it was mis-firing all the way.... if this sounds like a problem anyone els has had with a weber or just a datto please let me kno how to fix it whatever. sorry to go on but the car had been running really nice until today. thanks if you can or cant help. ps... i'm in canberra... do dattos hate canberra? brett _________________________________________________________________ Join the world�s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
