Guys

After the second engine in Matts buggy pissing water out of between the head and tappet cover. Which is strange because the engine runs like a dream and the water is clean as clean coming out. Engine ran then over heated so no good.
(any suggestions on this issue post away)

BUT the real issue is we have to get the bear going with the 1800 type 4 engine. So help me out here.

Engine in, had to take the mech pump off because it hit the horns so i put on a elec pump at 4psi it pushes fuel pas the needle and seat and into the carby not good there but a reg should fix it I hope.

Next when it runs at about 3000 rpm seems to run ok but then starts back firing out the carbs and exhaust now do you think this is just over fueling or the timing? I used a light when it was runing as it idles down before dieing the marks line up and at revs there is a white mark with adv on the pulley and it lines up with that. That sound right??

Suggestions greatly appreciated if not we will be there in a 4wd not my idea of a buggy trip

as you can tell a bit frantic at the moment all help is good help

Do the basics/tune up: New spark plugs, leads, points and condensor Plus timing
