Yesterday, while i had a general look at the carbs and air filters, i suddenly came aware of that the piston in the front carb did'nt move while "blimping" the throttle. First, i noticed that i only heard the sound of air suction from the rear carb, when checking this out i saw that only the piston in the rear carb moved. At full throttle both pistons moved!
Is it ment to work like this? The piston in the front carb is not sticking, by the means that it is easily pushed up manually. And the car runs ok, accelerate ok, everything seems ok when driving. I guess i would feel a real lack of power if the front carb did'nt work ok? So again, is this how it works?

hi,
john is right, they should work together, the metal bar that links them together will need adjusting so that they do lift together.

Thanks! The front carb did'nt follow the rear because of
wrongly adjusted linkage. Now both the pistons pulls up at the same time.
