skapunkninja Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 ive been hunting down an air leak on my jeep, and traced it to this hole on the carb (red arrow) its a threaded hole, but not got a clue what it should attatch to, or if there should be a blanking plug there? i had a flick through the maintenance manual, but it wasnt much help any thoughts?

mash Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 You could try putting a bolt in and running it, mite solve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Johns Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Yes a blanking plug should be in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skapunkninja Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 cheers, found a bolt and plugged the hole, no more air leak Got another small problem though, which i think may be carb related... Took the jeep out today for the first proper drive since getting her (to the MOT testing station, passed first time ) Sometimes, maybe one in five times, as i take my foot off the accelerator and come to a stop the engine will cut out. It restarts as soon as i press the starter button. i've played around with the idle screw to try and remedy this, but not alot seems to happen. i've never really played with Carbeuratas(sp?) so im not to sure of the best way to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
