Some of you may of seen my previous post about tuning my SU carbs. Everyone was great and gave me some really good advice. I since brought a colour tune and carb balancer, which I have used quite a bit. However, there is a bit of an issue that I am hoping someone can help me with.
I can tune the carbs, so they are running about 6.5 on both sides and she runs nice about 900. After the electric fan has kicked in and then gone off, the reves return to 850 - 900 quite quickly. However, when I have been pressing the accelerator the revs will only come down to about 1000 or just above. She will not return to 850 - 900, which she was running at before I pressed the gas.
After the gas was been pressed the front carb (by fan) will be running at about 7.5 and the back carb (by the bulkhead) will be running at about 6. I pressed the bracket - front carb by fan (in the picture below) and the revs went down. No matter what I did, I could not get the revs to stay down. Have anyone come across this where the front carb will not come down but the back carb will?
