Hi,
I arrive on your forum with an very unusual car: A Panther Kallista 2.3.
These english cars were mostly produded in England with engine 1.6 (Escort) or 2.8, 2.9 Granada/Capri.
But my car was produced in US and have a 2.3 LIMA. This engine is totaly unknown in Europe.
I need your help:
I've a Carter 7662 S on a one barrel manifold and a lot of problems with this carb: 17 liters/100 km, automatic choke, progression when the engine is cold. Engine in the 2.3 4 cyl OHC, +/- 1982; 88 cv.
And not a lot of power. The compressions are good;, no oil consumption,...
What the best way to go better:
-rebuilt the carb ?
- change the carb , what ? Transdapt ? Jeggs talks about Edelbroek 1404/500, Burton talks about Weber 38 DGGS, Esslinger manifold + Holley 350 ?
There are some pictures on my blog.
Thank you fro help from my americans friends.
Regards,
Etienne
