So, I've been trying to drive the 142, but keep having severe lean popping.
At first, I thought it was mixture. I tweaked and tweaked and tweaked.
Then, I replaced my metal fuel line that had a suspect kink in it.
Then, I replaced my fuel filter to make sure it wasn't clogged.
I am running a clear fuel filter, and when the car is running, it doesn't stay full EVER, regardless of RPM.
It seems to me, furthermore, it is only running on the front carb, as any attempt to richen/lean out or even lift the dashpot/needle shows no change in RPM.
The car has an original Pierburg stamped mechanical pump. Could it be piss-poor fuel pressure?
Help.
