No idle

[matthew13]

I have a 1983 petrol 2 ltr cu engine with twin carbs. Can wouldn't idle infinity had warmed up for a while but recently had a problem with rough running and found that one of the spark plugs was loose. This has now been retorted and tightened properly but now my van wont idle at all, cold or hot. Anyone have any ideas?

In the process of retightening the sparkplug you might have accidentally knocked something else loose.

Bonjour,

Do you still have the original ignition system??

Check this hasn’t been knocked off or split?

Thanks bamboobilly I will check to see if the vacuum thing hasn't been knocked or split, where abouts is it?

Bonjour sarran, nope it's not the original ignition system I put in a Powersparks distributor and coil etc a few years ago.

Crap/water in carbs, blocked idle jet(s), air filter, fuel filter........
