Model A Lagging and Popping when Accelerating
Hi everyone,
The past few times I've driven my Model A, I noticed it loses a little power and pops a bit when accelerating. It idles ok. I'm wondering if there might be a couple of reasons why it might be doing it. I'll give you the scenario from starting to driving in the morning. I retard the spark lever all the way up, pull the throttle lever about 1/3 to 1/2 down, open the GAV to about 1/2 to 3/4 open, open the gas valve, pop out the ignition, pull the choke and start the car. It usually starts right up on either the 2nd or 3rd crank. I then pull the spark lever down about 1/2, push the throttle lever up to idle and turn the GAV to about 1/4 open. I let it idle for a few minutes while I move my other cars out of the driveway and get my stuff together for work. I then back it out, and start driving. As I accelerate out onto the main road is when I notice it lag a bit and pop a couple of times when accelerating. Most of the time, after a little while of driving, it starts picking up the pace and stops popping. Could it be any of the following?
Thanks as always in advance. John |
