| Have you had it jetted to suit your motor?? If it has come straight off a Cortina and you are running the 1600 chances are it will be jetted to big for your motor. Where are you?? |

it is probably running too rich as it came off a bigger engine (2L). take it to a carby place and have them fix it up and run it on the dyno. i have the same carby on my motor and it hasn't been re-jetted or tuned or anything and it makes a huge difference anyway...
the carby place i went to said it would cost $60 to tune it and stuff. |

well if you want to di it yourself, buy a gas analiser or a dynomometer
it should only set you back $100 000 or so |

| Go to a dyno workshop, before you get the car on the dyno, make sure they are familiar with tuning a DGV weber. |
