It is my understanding that the gas pedal won't play a significnat role in starting a car equipped with SU carbs, since the venturi is essentially constant. When I first experimented with this on my

My SUs on my 71 need to have the gas pumped while starting. Usually one pump 1/2 way then feathering the pedal from 0 to 1/2 all while cranking. Usually takes literally 2 seconds to start, but withou

Your "feathering the pedal" effectively partially opens your throttle. The fact that you have to do this tells me your fast-idle link to the choke is not adjusted properly. Your "one pump halfway" d

After fixing the choke linkage on the rear SU in my MGB, the car starts exactly how I think it should; in the summer, no choke, no gas, and in the winter, choke out 3/4 and no gas. Skye -- 1966 MGB -

I know that the choke is all wrong since the car won't idle on it in any position but off. I would love to figure out what I am doing wrong but I never get around to looking at it, and besides I don'

Watch the linkage at the carbs as you rotate the choke shaft; it will probably become clear how it is supposed to work. As you may know, the first half of the choke is supposed to increase the idle s

Have a look at 'Spanners' and 'SU Carbs' on the web site below. Might help. PaulH. http://freespace.virgin.net/paul.hunt1/ (or if that URL doesn't work try ) (http://194.168.54.52/paul.hunt1) The is

'Respond', yes, but perhaps not in a desirable manner. The Weber allong with most (all?) fixed-jet carbs has an accellerator pump that chucks a bucketful (OK, a small bucket) of neat fuel down the in
