  1. Nothing against carbureted engines I am just not as good with them as I never deal with them.. just need to work with them a little more. Thanks for the help though!
  2. By shot I mean they are fouled. Yes sorry for the confusion, it fires. Yes you are right, I could have missed a few things. You're right it is probably the carbs, I personally don't like carbureted engines and I will swap the engine as soon as I can to one I know more about as I have two rb26's. They are twin SU carbs. The throttle body/ butterfly valve is opening fully but is seems like the "needle/plunger" (sorry if terminology is wrong) doesn't move at all. Compression was 130 on all cylinders. I got a friend to manually open the needle/plunger and it shut off
  3. I have a 1971 240z, when I bought it it ran well and was good all summer and come winter time I had some minor things to fix. Decided to pull the engine and rebuild it. Everything was cleaned and put back together, everything seemed fine but now it won't start. At first there were electrical issues, no power to the ignition. That was fixed and we tried to start the car. With the throttle fully open it will turn over really rough but it runs, barely.. it sits at 1000rpm and after a couple minutes it dies (that is worth the throttle fully open the whole time). We checked compression it's good, checked for leaks at all flanges and there are none, replaced spark plugs as 3 were shot, firing order is all correct, it's a twin carb set up and we checked both float pots on the carbs both are getting/have gas so It is getting fuel, if you release the pedal it dies instantly. I have no idea what could be wrong.. has anyone had the same issue? Or any ideas on how to fix it?
