Brother got his IIa up and running today, however he tells me that its
running like a bag of spanners!! He says that it ticks over fine, but under
acceleration it misses and chuffs out black smoke. Has turned the mixture
screw right in, and it will continue to run and accelerate with black smoke.
Economy diaphram has a small tear in it, is this likely to be the cause?? He
also seems to think ther is excessive wear around the hole through which the
shaft holding the flutter valve sits (apparently petrol comes out rount
here, but he thinks its a result of the huge amounts of fuel being dumped
into the system).
Should he get a repair kit? Is it something he's missing, or shoud he just
throw it in the hedge and buy a new one?
Any help is appreciated as he is baffled ATM.
Cheers
