fuel problem
we have got a T25 2.0cu, just had all the carbs rebuilt at gasure and what a fab job steve did, it was running like a dream until i couldnt get any fuel thanks to mr cameren and his fantastic fuel shortages this week when the only fuel i could get was super unleaded...... rather than run out i put some in and it seemed to run fantasticly untill it got to quater of a tank today, its running like the carbs are knackered again, its back firing, smoking, and feeling like the chocke is on..... do u think its the super unleaded fuel i have put in or do u think the carbs are playing up again, if its the fuel do u think i have done any lasting damage or shall i just fill it bk up with normal fuel and hope for the best...... can someone help me please cheers

Re: fuel problem
fill it up with normal unleaded and see what happens. My guess is the fuel. I'm not a holder of any certificates mind you

Re: fuel problem
You may have run low enough to suck crap through. Could be that filter is clogged or carb/s have debris in.Change filter and topup - see how it goes.
