i.e. does it open the choke flap when you increase the revs?
...and is the choke flap gap set correctly, as per the haynes.

when it's cold...
Remove the duct.
Start the engine, and observe the choke flap.
It should open with more revs and close without them
By the time 8 mins has past the choke should open fully

Hi, I want to get my engine and carb tuned does anyone know anywhere in the midlands (I’m in Derby) that could do it? I’ve done a basic tune myself but it needs a specialist I think. I have a 1980 Aircooled 2.0l with a Weber (empi) carb Thank you
