The car runs, but floods badly. When it idling, the left carb seems to flood itself no matter what i replace or adjust. When you rev it after idling it almost dies. Also when it warms up, the revs hunt around while idling. The carbs are Stromberg 175 cd2.
Notorious for being very hard to time both carbs ..sim. probs.haunt many multi carb . set ups just ask any one with old triumphs .if carbs have never been rebuilt i think it might be time .if they have it might be time to replace .if replacing try finding ones with a fule management system.

started as a flat spot in the RPM curve - basically when exceeding 2500 rpm's, the car would die as if the ignition switch were turned off. Checked all ignition parts, cleared them, went after fuel delivery system - all filters including sump, replaced fuel pump, and have just sent carbs out of re-buidling / re-bushing. Re-built carbs should arrive in a few days, will post if the problem is now solved.
Hi, I have the exact same problem with my Jag. I'm just wondering, did you ever find out what the issue was?
