Just got my rocco MOT'd.
Still running like a beeatch.
Ive changed all plugs leads etc.
The revs are still erratic. Feels like the choke is sticking on. Drove her 20 miles today and it as still idling at 2K. But it doesnt splutter or hold back when you are on the open road.
Any Ideas ???????

idle screw maybe over adjusted or a vaccum leak somewhere? i dont know about the carbs on these but my kn carb used to leak on the bell housing and it would idle alot higher. just a thought really. Carb er ation ! 51732

It starts just under 2k and then drops off to just under 1k as it should but as soon as its warm its back up to 2k. Will be checking all vac pipes Carb er ation ! 51732

If you're still on the peeburg, I've got a weber 32/34 sitting in a box.
Managed 38mpg out of it (granted, driving like a granny).

PM me if you're interested mate.
