- Think of the loss in fuel consumption! I pour mine back in the tank :o) Pertronix eh? Remember 90% of carb problems are down to electrics ...

- I did this first. And yes, it's delivering at least 20 oz in a minute. I didn't think it was this. But it gave me plenty of gas to mow the lawn on Monday or Tuesday, whenever it dries out. :-) Yep, a

- First, as others have suggested, check that the pump delivers at least 1 Imperial pint per minute at the carbs, which is waaaay more than even a V8 needs. Then go through the ignition system checking

- Weren't some listers reporting a similar loss of power at speed awhile back and it turned out to be because the heater valve was bad and leaking onto the distributor? Just a thought. Donny V 1978 Aft

- That's a good point. The core plug right there above the oil filter is leaking. I haven't got around to this. I doubt it's the fuel pump. But that's just because I'm pig headed and want to believe MY

- Perhaps a piece of debris in the fuel that blocked the main jet. On a cold engine, dump the float bowl onto a white paper towel. Didja find it? If it keeps happening you may want to clean the carb. Y
