PO took out the original motor and put in the 2.6 but he couldn't get the 2.6 running so the car sat, so far the firing order was wrong, coil wire was broken and shoved back into the coil, carburetor was no good and not hooked up correctly. The bad carburetor actually had some insect larva inside the fuel barbs, they were in the orifices and their corpses glued the openings shut.
I swapped on another non feedback Mikuni that came with the car (I think it was to the original engine), new plugs and wires retimed the dizzy just because and it started and ran.

Thank you. I like your landscaping, lots of pokie things like my cholla!

Cool good for you yong man ... Having a stock little old car around can be fun ...My 71 Capri has been cool ..It just keeps going and parts are cheap...

I don't know about you other guys but I'm rather disappointed that there wasn't a picture of the larvae. LOL. When I was reading the reply from toasty I got excited and kinda grossed out when he described the carnage in the carb. I want to see!!!

Hahaha...

I drove it around the neighborhood today, a little buggy but not bad. At least it moves under it's own power now.

Fixed it, pretty close those are old Supra wheels.
