Hello Rick,

You might check for worn throttle shafts.

Subject: [Mgs] XPAG question
=20
Hello friends,
We're house-bound here in Houston with a stay-at-home order in place. =
My chores are done and Nancy's SUV is 'clayed' and waxed. It looks =
as-new, which is pretty good for any SUV.
This morning, after finishing the Toyota, I went back to work on my =
'53 MG TD. It started right up and ran up to a smooth 3000rpm. After =
that, the choke control immediately went in a bit leaving the engine to =
idle at 2000rpm, with the choke lightly applied. After warm, and with =
the choke pushed full in, the idle dropped to about 900rpm, with a few =
misses preventing a totally smooth idle. And those words begin my =
question.
The engine stumbles when given a little 'wellie' and after gaining =
engine speed, it runs quite unevenly. No amount of coaxing will get it =
over 3000rpm. So, what's wrong?! Timing is set properly.
The stumble is characteristic of leaning out, as when the carb =
dampers are empty. And overly lean charge is indicated by the fact that =
when cold, with enrichment, to engine will rev to 3000rpm easily.=20
I'm going to lower the jets another couple of 'flats' to see if that =
helps. In the mean time I ask: What else might I have missed?
