A bit of history first. 59 TR3A recently acquired. Carbs were rebuilt about a year ago. The car was hard starting after sitting a few days, but would usually go, if a couple weeks had passed since r

An obvious question, but I'll ask it - are you using the choke (actually, it is an enrichment device rather that a true chike)? Michael Marr 1960 TR3A 2000 Jag XK8 Naperville, IL However, now it is =
