The way you are pumping the pedal while trying to start, you would drown any carburetor driven petrol car. With this carb, One time press the pedal before starting, so the start mixture is set. Then keep it in one position during your start attempt. It is not a kick starter.

You are right! The issue with the car in the video ultimately turned out to be the timing chain tensioner had failed. Unfortunately also the cam inside the automatic choke on the carb was so worn downt that it no longer functioned - I wonder do you know if replacement cams are available for these Stromberg's?

Good video but man, trashing carburation is such a sign of ignorance... If this car was fuel injected there is no way you could diagnose the fuel system as easily as the granpa did here.

Hahah, we know, we even said that later in the video. This is just his first breakdown, and he’s the only one of us driving carb, so we wanted to give him a good grilling. ;)

The car runs like a diesel. There is a serious carburetor problem. The vehicle is very lively. The engine is very good but the carburetor is also problematic

It is for me personally,, one of the best carburetors to adjust and run. Keep them clean, replace the membrane every once in a while and don't mess with it. You can adjust litteraly everything on those. However, when trying to get the car started, they did the same almost everyone does, start at the carburetor. By turnng the choke-housing, what the mechanic did, you change the temperature setting of the automatic choke, then the idle mixture and rpm do not match anymore, etc. etc. Where the real problem was the ignition. Did they use a gauge to put the breaker point on the correct distance? Did they check the timing with a timing light? That is where you start with an engine like this. Then make sure to also check and adjust the valve clearances. from inlet and exhaust valves. It is part of the inspection. These engines last forever, as long as you maintain them proper.
