If it is delayed, I would think it were a fuel issue. Check the fuel reservoir and float? |

I just checked the float chamber and it was full of gunk, so cleaned it out and took it for a spin, but still spluttered, i think im going to need t strip the whole carb down and give it a good clean 1972 998 TURBO SLEEPER |

As the float was full of gunk, it might be worth whipping the needle and jet out for a quick once over.

Unlikely to be the tank as the float chamber should compensate for any surge or momentary loss of fuel at the pump.

I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

since its lh bends , id expect the float to be too high ,and fuel flooding in the carb . Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM |

After giving the float chamber a good clean out and ran it for a while the spluttering seems to have stopped. 1972 998 TURBO SLEEPER |
