Hesitant Acceleration

[Muzzie]

Basically you tromp on the gas at the lights (actually you don't even needa tromp on it) and it lurches away then almost dies then takes off.

Bloody annoying and I always think it's gonna stall. Why is ithat and how do I fix it.

3Y motor, 2.0 carbed.

Gap and change plugs to start with, this is cheap <$20.

If that doesnt solve it, new leads, rotor and dizzy cap.

Failing that, fuel filter

check your plugs as al says, get a multimeter and chack leads for resistance. too high resistance will give u part of problem, if it has points check the condition of these, electronic ignition check the air gap. Ignition timig check, air filter clean or replace,when didi the fuel filter get changed last. Mixture for he carb??? what's it like u can tune it by ear

carbed.

That to me sounds like the accelerator pump isn't working.

It's had new air filter, had the timing done and it was waaaaay out.

Guess i'll try the leads and plugs, I think it has electronic ignition, have to check on that.

Will keep this updated, thanks.
