Hi Guys

Today i completed Ever my first carburetor job,Cleaned Everything nicely and started the car it started at once, and kept for sometime without any problem , then i stopped it and again tried to start it it did not start but after few minutes it starts , and i kept it 1 hour without starting then i couldn't start it unless i put little fuel to the carb through air cleaner top, after that i could start it again and again within few minutes intervals only.
it doesn't smoke at all and also spark plugs also were light brownish color after cleaning the car and start.
And also notices when the engine is running the float bowl level is little above quarter,and after stop the engine it sits half way , have i mistaken any thing with float level of it ?it has got hard starting but ,i don't know to tune up it any more with idle air fuel mixture and timing on distributor, planning to take it to the mechanic on Saturday , any clue on what i have to do further to get it normal, specially with distributor settling and idle air mixture set up ?

This is my B310

thanks
regards
sumith

This is a problem:

The level should be the same when running and stopped.

Now it is time to do a fuel pump volume test. See Fuel pump pressure test

Hi DD

Thanks a lot , i think Factory Fuel Pump can be clean and reassemble, I am gonna to check it today and clean it also,
Just Tell me afterwords from where should i start to tune the engine ? Most of the Online resources says turn idle screw and air fuel mixture screw clockwise until they seems seating to the end and turn them counterclockwise 2 or 2 and half turns and start the engine and adjust it from there ?
will it be ok for 1200 Hitachi ?

thanks
regards

I suggest you do not disassemble and clean. Instead, test it.

For tuning, that is not the specified method for Hitachi. If it is running, follow the steps in Tune-up (section Engine Tuneup).
