Tried two turbo carbs and two regulators, it ran fine on the metro. But has been sitting in the shop for a while now.

There are a few things that spring to mind.

Check that you are getting 3.5psi of fuel pressure on idle. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

There are a few things that spring to mind. 1) Fuel pressure reg (as Robert said) 2) Plenum gasket missing extra hole 3) 9 V supply to ignition module rather than 12 V. This is if you have used the 9 V ballast coil supply. Will try that tomorrow thanks |

Hi, Yes, you should get 3.5 ish psi with the ignition on... Cheers, Gavin :) My bad.. 
To check it, take the fuel supply hose off the carb that runs from the FPR and put a pressure gauge on it (I used my boost gauge which seemed to be fine). If its a lttle high or low adjust the centre screw on the FPR untill its right. If your struggling to get adjustment to 3.5psi take the FPR apart and have a look at the diaphragm its possible that this has weakend, stretched or even split if its fairly old! If all the other checks come back ok, try the 'T' piece trick. (if you do a search you'll find many different threads on this). https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

Hey, just wanted to close this topic with our solution. We went over everything once more, and found out that when the carb vent valve is not fitted, you need to close the tube it would normally be fitted to.
