>>I have a 77 spitfire with a weber dgav carb. I was driving and all was
fine. I made a stop and when I started it back up it didn't want to rev
up. It started wheezing (for lack of a better term) almost as soon as I
pressed on the gas. Had to tow it home with my pickup.
I started looking at the carb as it seemed like a fuel starvation
problem. I checked the fuel pump and all seemed fine there. I pulled
the main jets and idle jets to check for blocks and all looked good.
The engine will idle all day, just can't get it past 2000 rpms.<<
Do you have a mechanical ignition? Check the points gap,
for starters. This sounds just like what (I thought) my HS4s were doing. Good
luck.
