Yeah Terry, it's from a 200 LDV Pilot. We're running quite tall tyres, which may counteract the low ratio, but it's all guesswork really. I know Sherpa/LDV axles came in different ratios, but I've no idea if they'd make much difference.
Been thinking about it as I've been trudging round my postal delivery in the rain this morning. Blocked primary jet?
It started fine, but wouldn't tickover -I had to keep my foot on the throttle to stop it stalling.
Using the choke killed it.
Once it was warm & we pulled out of the yard, it was struggling, as if running out of fuel -I had to keep blipping the throttle to keep it running.
Up the hill outside the yard, where I could put my foot down a bit more, it picked up & accelerated well -secondary/accelerator pump kicking in?
By the time we'd done a couple of miles around the ringroad & got back to the yard, it was ticking over O.K.
Loony jumped in & blatted it back & forth around the yard & thought it was fine, but that was heavy footed braarrp, braarrping about, spinning the tyres on the gravel. It's the more sedate pootling along in traffic bit that wasn't quite right yesterday.
Maybe it just needs a bit of a run again as it's been stood for a week or two.
Probably won't get to take it out this afternoon cos it's still raining here. I've just got home from work to dry out after getting soaked every 5 or 10 minutes for the last 4 hours
