Some suggestions: 1. Is there oil in the dashpot? 2. Wrong oil in the dashpot (use light oil) 3. Fuel/air mixture too lean (wrong carb needle?) - as you mentioned 4. Over-advanced timing JLC The pati

First, check the oil in the dash pot. Next, is your gas fresh? Is there a possibility that it has picked up some water over the winter? You might add some gas line drier and see if that helps. Kate

I have a question that is related to dashpot oil. If the inclusion of dashpot oil is so important why did so many racers not run any in their race cars? I have just wondered that for a while. Thanks,
