Hello everyone!
I pulled out the Rover Prince today to give it a run just because I can.
Ive found it has an issue... let me explain...
upon starting the engine it would run up fine for about a minute and then would shut down. I would immediately try to restart it but it will simply refuse.
If I let it stand for a couple of minutes and try starting again it will fire up and only run for a few seconds before stopping.
I removed the tank and removed the carburettor, the gasket looks fine, the pickups looked clean.
I checked the jet and needle and it too looked clear.
I reinstalled the tank and carburettor and restarted. It again started fine and would run for a minute and die again.
I removed the carburettor and changed it out for another tank and carburettor.
It started fine, idles perfectly and ran with no sign of any issue. I increased engine speed and just upon reaching full throttle a lot of fuel mist and drops are noticed being knocked out of the air intake and the engine dies.
Much head scratching happening. Otherwise it runs like a champion!
Any ideas?
Thanks Everyone!
