Problem with Carby running very rich

Post by JacZook »

Hi all

I have a 91 1.3lt Sierra with a carby problem.
It runs very rich, I mean I only get about 180 good KMs out of a tank.
I have cheaked all leads, points etc but no fix yet.
I even blew out the jets in the carby but that didnt help
I pulled out the spark plugs and found the they are "fuel wet" and I get a lot of black smoke, I really have no idea how to fix this, I have heard ther is no mixture scew on the asian carbys so any help with this is great

thanks again

make sure your choke is opening right up and no air bubbles in the water line

As said, check your choke is not stuck on. The mixture screw is only for your idle mixture. Your jets control the mixture above idle (basic explanation anyway).

Are you running a thermostat? If you're not chances are the choke is never closing as it's not getting hot enough.

Also check that your needle and seat valve isnt leaking, or your float has not developed a hole and sunk.
