howdy,

i have a slight problem when running my car on unleaded.
when you apply power there is nothing and the engine almost stalls and then there is a big kick and then the power comes on.

could this be the fuel filter?

any help would be appreciated.

cheers :)

how do you mean pollution carby? just take the airfilter off and spray some carb cleaner down the throat of the carb..they should have the bolt in the middle of the aircleaner on top of the carb?
