Still sounds like a timing problem to me, rather than carbs. Any possibility you've got the distro in 180¼ out? Spark plug wires switched? Is the spark blue or orange? -----Original Message----- From: mis fits [SMTP:we_are_1_3_8@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, January 14, 1999 6:26 PM To: type3@vwtype3.org Subject: [T3] carb problems i have just finished slapping together the 1641cc motor for my '64' fast (really a '67 but with 64 notch front fenders and pan). she has a engle110 cam and 32mm baby dell's. first, it is hard as hell to start any time of day )no real problem with me).second, after about 10min of running at an idle (900rmp's) it ever so slightly starts to backfire and any gas i try to give it it wants to die unless i feather the pedal A-LOT. as far as i can tell the timing is set ok, and the points condenser are in good condition the plugs are a light brown color i have no idea on hoe to adjust the carb's using the single screw it gives me any ideas or comments would be great.
