Type 3 1.9carb 1983 cutting out when clutch in.

[The Silver Surfer]

My t25 was running fine alllast weekend.
Drove it away this weekend and once the automatic choke switches off and I clutch in the engine stalls.

I,ve been bump starting at roundabouts to keep it going.

It seems to hesitate on hard acceleration.

I noticed a spade connector hanging below the coil it looks like it connects to a water pipe valve or sensor then to a bypass valve on the carb.

Could this be a 12v supply to both the water pipe valve and the carb valve?

or any other ideas?

Need a picture as it doesnt make sense..

will it idle if you stop?
Blocked idle jet, idle set too low.. timing slipped... vac advance unit faulty.. all manner of things.. difficult to diagnose at distance....

If the wire with the lose female spade on is yellow and red striped then it goes to the raised round button atop the thermostat housing and powers the dash temperature guage.

You thought of buying a manual for this van ?
