Cutting out
« on: 18 January 2011, 12:38:34 »
Has anyone any idea about this one. Starts fine runs fine but every now and again it cuts out. Also occasionally engine revs peak a little when idling. Would be grateful for any ideas. Thanks.

I agree, loads of carb cleaner to clean it out and free it off then a little PTFE or Silicone based lube :y
