In my last post, I explained that my stock ZS carb had given up the ghost, and 3 rebuilds had not been able to resolve the main problem - that of raw fuel overflowing from the carb vent after a few minutes of running.
I replaced the carb with a new Webber DGV 32/36 and was amazed that it started and ran quite well - for a few minutes. While waiting for the engine to reach full operating temp, I observed that raw fuel began to drip from the secondary, and then the primary. Once it started the car began to belch and cough.
I have a mechanical pump - one I paid a little extra for back in April. 3 rebuilds and now a new carb is having a similar problem. Oddly, I've put several thousand miles on the fuel pump and old carb before this started. Could the pump have suddenly begun putting out a higher pressure? or am I simply incapable of checking a float height correctly?
How many votes for swapping the fuel pump?
Other suggestions greatly appreciated.
