hey there,

I am having trouble with my motor. it is a TD motor in a TC with a tri-matic bolted up behind it. I am haveing problems when accelerating it is just a real slug at any more than 1/4 throttle.t just bogs right down almost to not moving when i use any more than that but it will rev freely when in neutral all thru the motion of the pedal... and when accelerating out of a corner it seems to "bounce" in and out of power like something is on a spring until it setles... what could it be.. i have checked the fluid levels and they are all fine.. anyone???

What carby are you running? If you are running anything other than the nikki, get it tuned.

It might be running a bit rich.

I had this problem in my commodore and my carby had a hole in it somewhere where something came out and it was spitting petrol over the block, but I doubt it would be that though.
