So the right carb was leaking, big time. Order new float valve and adjusted float per the book. Still leaking. Adjusted float some more. Got leak stopped. But...no gas getting to right cylinder. Called my master carburetor mechanic who had a super idea. Why not take the bowl off the other carburetor and measure how the float is hanging. Big difference. Adjusted right float to match left float geometry, reassembled everything, and voila - no leak and both cylinders firing. Thanks Tim! Of course Harry will have a negative comment, but that's to be expected. .......... So glad it all worked for the good. Like I said the delorto cards are so simple but finicky. I’d rather work on a delorto than set the injection pumps on imaginary twin Volvo turbo diesels any day. |
