Morning
I have a 79 lightweight landrover series 3 was an FFR
The guy 3 years ago we bought it of cut out all the 24v and convert it to12v
We have tried to get it to run smoothly but failing as when you get to about 45 mph it jumps about and will not go over
We have tried a Webber, Solex and Zenith (which is on there now)
No difference !
So as it felt like fuel starvation put on all new hoses , pump, cleaned carb , cleaned tank , new feeder pipe.
Got it running then did the timing at the 6deg BTDC as in the book.
Still the same ! 45-48 jumping all over the place.
So we thought it was dragging in air somewhere
Checked all breathers renewed gaskets on the exhaust and carb side.
Still the same .
It was suggested that we go to an SU but as 3 carbs all had no effect to the problem think that would be the same .
It now has a new coil , electronic ignition new dizzy ,cap, leads, plugs.
Totally at a loss to why this is still there ?
Perhaps someone could shed some light or has had the same problem
Be much appreciated
Regards
Steve
