Brilliant, cheers.

Ahh, ok.
I will have another look at that tonight. Transfer jet being bent tube? (sorry for being dim)

Ok, fitted new plugs and leads last night. Runs a 'bit' better. So, to summarise...the van has new fuel pump/coil/plugs/leads and in line fuel filter looks clean. I also split the carb last night and cleaned some gunk out of the float chamber and poked one or two valves through. I also trimmed with ...

Yep, got some plugs/leads. Rotor arm and cap 'look' ok but you never know!! I changed plugs/leads/rotor arm/cap last year but that was before we had a disastrous trip to Holland. As I said. loads of crap in the carb, massive loss of power, massive amounts of black smoke from the engine etc Van was h...

There seemed to be a decent flow when you split the in line filter but the water in the tank is a interesting thought.

Cheers for that, BUT......spoke to soon! Running fine on the way to work....total crap out on the way back, feels like its running on 3/stalling/foot down and no power... and then starts running ok(ish) once again!

Hello, I had a problem recently with my 1900 type 25. No idle, stalling constantly. We discovered there was no power to the idle cut off switch from the little black wire that seems to connect below the carb somwhere?? The issue seemed to be (is) solved by connecting a unused (convenient) spade conn...

Problem solved.
Getting no juice to the idle 'kill' switch on side of carb, local mechanic is a genius

Hello, First post and a bit of an emergency! 1.9 petrol type 25 circa 1986. Been missing a little bit and now wont idle at all, just cuts out. The one thing that I can see at first glance is a black wire running from the top of the carb, connects to a white plastic push connector and then goes into ...
