B200K Issues.
Posted: 14 May 2011 10:05 pm
Right, 2.0l 360, pretty sure its a B200K engine.
Anyway, its been off the road for a few weeks now, not broken mechanically just doing some body work.
So, tried to start it up this afternoon and failed basically. The engine refuses to turn over, and upon closer inspection there is no fuel getting to the carb, can see petrol in the fuel filter but there is none in the carb itself,thinking fuel pump, as the filter itself isn't blocked, but how do i check and where would i buy a replacement? If anyone can help me, id be ridiculously greatful.
The second issue is the carb, solex i think... and basically, i hate it, and it leaks around the base plate.
Is there anything about i can use for a replacement or improvement (more power never hurt) Id love a weber or a pair of twins, but ive no idea how viable it is, and im not able to fabricate anything myself so would need something i can put straight on and get to work. Whats my options guys?
Cheers
