I got a problem with a Weber DTML 32/34 carb fitted on a BMW 316, as a
replacement. The car has run fine for 4 years but lately when it is cold it
is fine but as soon as it warms up, it begins losing power, jerking, it gets
worse until the car is undriveable etc.We then clean the carb, float bowl
and jets etc. and all is well for a few days until it starts again. We have
flushed and cleaned the fuel tank, replaced the standard fuel filter,
checked all the fuel lines for corrosion, replaced any old flexible lines,
added an additional in line fuel filter before the carb and changed the fuel
pump but it still seems to be happening.
Anyone got suggestions ?
