I am thinking about getting a new engine to replace my the 1.9l petrol in my 1984 T25.
Does anyone know what my options are?
Ideally I'm looking for the cheapest and simplest option.

Re: cause of a misfire???
So I took the plunge and removed the whole carb. I found that piece that I couldn't find earlier (i was where you had said, Kev) and this is what mine looks like... 015.JPG I've also identifed two brass inlets into the carb 018.JPG The one on the right as you look at the picture is the fuel inlet di...

Re: cause of a misfire???
So my journey towards full understanding of the internal workings of the internal combustion engine takes another step towards its final conclusion... So I found the level that the excelerator pedal moves, so I could look down the carb throat to watch the fuel squirting in without having to call of ...

Re: cause of a misfire???
I've just found this link to cleaning out the second filter. If it is a Jetting problem, this is going to be my first port of call. https://club8090.co.uk/wiki/Fuel_system_-_Pierburg#Jetting_carbs I have to say, having been a T25 owner for only two months, I'm extremely impressed by the resources an...

Re: cause of a misfire???
Further to me hijacking somebody else's post, I had a look under the Carb Cap today, and gave the choke cap a good ol' spray with WD40. It didn't seem stiff and all my attentions didn't really make any difference to the problem. I even tried Ghost's suggestion, holding open the choke open with some ...

Re: cause of a misfire???
Bradders, it sounds like you have exactly the same problem as me. I have a 1984 T25 which has started to pop and backfire under load and when it loses power, I have to ride the clutch to keep the revs high so I can move away. Same thing with sooty sparks too.
