It seems like air leak or gasoline trouble. I'm no mechanic... I'd won't run idle, I have to gas, but it doesn't seem to need choke, quite the opposite. When I drive (especially in first and second gear) it jumps and coughs alot. If at any point I let go of the gas, the coughing stops. Likewise if I accelerate, it seems to run fine... But to drive either without gas or accelerating wildly does cost money ;-) The carburator (?) is supposedly a Weber, and those, I'v heard, are crap and will start to leak air in... Have tried tightening the bolts tying the carburator to (whatever is underneath it) but to no avail... Any advice?
