dont listen to smithy :P ... check the throttle arm is on and that the car is at idle position by tacking the air filter off and checking the gap

Things to consider

- Idle speed is too high

- Low speed needle is to lean

- Not enough fuel

- Fuel filter not allowing sufficient flow

- An Air leak?

- Bubbles in the fuel line

- Pressure (tank to exhaust) tubing has become disconnected / poor sealed / leaking

I may need help on this matter also, I decided I would see if I could run ye olde smartech again and the best i can get it to do is rev a lot but then it cuts out, idle is fine and all tuning is what it was before, but I don't think there is pressure between the fuel tank and the exhaust, when i put my finger over the exhaust and pull the starter no / very little fuel flows to the engine,

i'm not really sure how to solve this problem,

It's is not desparate because i took it apart to cheak everything else , and I've got my hyper for now, but it would be nice to get it going again.

any help on this would be great

Thanks,

Mr. Bass Man

Blow down the pressure tubing instead...

Turning Engine over with finger with exhaust is a slow and painful method....

yeah i tried that aswell, but it didn't work, the fuel just wouldn't go, i got it started by putting fuel straight into the engine but it won't take fuel from the tank,

Thanks,

Mr. Bass Man

sounds to me like your fuel tank has a pressure leak
