Hi all. Hope you guys can help me. Along with a bunch of other stuff my buddy (he is the mechanic) and I have recently finished rebuilding the carbs on my 72 TR6. We had the thing running great (mayb

Sounds like fuel problem. Checked fuel pump & filter? Float jets set at right level? Debris in tank or line blocking flow? Lou Sent from by wireless Blackberry. Hi all. Hope you guys can help me. Alo

Sounds like you lost fuel flow to the carbs. Pull the fuel line to the carbs, and direct it into a metal container while you crank the car. You should get a strong steady flow. If not, your fuel fil

Just a guess. Did you replace the floats? In my experience the original 30+ year old floats are far superior to any floats you get these days. The last time I rebuilt my carbs, the floats sank within

Thanks for all the great suggestions and keep them coming if anyone has anything else. I'll be doing some troubleshooting this evening. I should have mentioned we ruled out fuel to the carbs as the c

The dampersprings will not be part of the problem as they just set the damper height under a certain vacuum amount in the inlet manifold. It is the damper function that decides how fast the dampers

Is it me or are these ZS carbs a real PITA? I made a decision very early in the restoration of my 72 6 to convert to HS6 carbs. The reason at the time was I understand SUs with a 3 and a 4 in the ga

This is a long-running debate, and I'd like to add my 2 cents. Having rebuilt about 7 pairs of ZS carbs for Triumphs and Lotuses, and having in the past worked on a number of SU carbs for my cars an

FWIW I have no dyno results comparing the ZS VS S.U. but when I swapped my well tuned ZS for S.U.'s on a built motor my quarter mile times of upper 15 second range did not change. Marty _____________

And I found that adding a third Stromberg carb to my TR added 50% to the grin factor when looking at the engine without significantly changing the consumption. The shininess of the third K&N also add

Is it me or are these ZS carbs a real PITA? It is you - and a lot people - but it isn't me or a lot of other people. Since 1977, I have owned 12 Triumphs with dual Strombergs - I've never had a Z-S p

I've rebuilt quite a few Strombergs over the years and am very comfortable with them. I've rebuilt a couple of SU's and have a set on a car right now, but I perfer the Strombergs. Even though with th
