This is my first winter with the rover fully up and running. As the temps have began to drop my carb seems to be lousy. My father (who is always full of semi-useful advice) suggested that it could be the carb needing to be rebuilt or that the adjustments are off....
So, what do I do? Apparently, screw things up! I began with adjusting the mixture screw... followed the instructions that are found at: http://www.redlineweber.com/html/Tec...CT_tunning.htm
However, I went back to the start of it all and set the mixture screw "back to zero"....(Turn the Mixture Screw in until it “LIGHTLY” seats, then back out the screw 2 full turns.).
Now no matter how much I adjust the mixture screw I can not get it to start. I thought that the carb could be just cold. So, I set a heater in the garage and ran the temp back up to summer degrees....still nothing.
What have I done?! In addition, I am not really sure how long I wait for the fuel fumes to disappear between each try....
I'm stupid...and not being born in the age of mechanical engines has ruined me.
