Jamesd94 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Ive just replaced my engine because my last one blew up. the engine seems to be running fine but trying to start the engine is an absolute nightmare, i have to turn the key in the ignition to start at least 15 times before the engine will start. Its nothing to do with the spark cause ive put in brand new ht leads, brand new spark plugs and a brand new distributor cap, ive already tested for a spark and its fine. i think it could be fueling but am not sure. Also when i go to pull away sometimes or if im in a low gear the engine bogs and feels like it might stall. Any help would be much appreciated cause i wanna get her sorted before japfest!

brendonware Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 This is like my issue with my car, i have to try and start it loads of times before i get any luck! I put it down to over fueling, as it smells rich or the dizzy cap timing. Have you checked your timing? Brendon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanza-Ben Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 If it's still on stock then chances of it over fuelling from that are slim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
