Mick – Sorry to hear you are having problems with your carbs. :icon_sad:

My car also suffered fuel starvation the other day, but, luckily, I was able to push it home.
( As I’d barely pulled out of my driveway. :rolleyes: )

I hope I’ve tracked the problem to a blocked fuel line (new parts on their way).

But, for me, this was confirmed by running the engine without any problems from a petrol can.





I know you know a lot more about this sort of thing than I do, but I thought I’d mention it just in case.

Good luck, Paul. :)
