Need a Nikki rebuilt

Viperx7 · 01-12-2013, 01:54 AM

I need to find someone to rebuild the Nikki on my 85. I've bought a couple that were "working great", but ended up being junk. Can't afford a Weber set up from RB.
LMK.
Thanks.

what is the engine doing or not doing?

i know it's not hard to find non-functional Nikkis, but have you exhausted all other options? vacuum leaks (gaskets, dry-rotted hoses, etc.)? fuel supply?

The car runs good at idle or if the choke is pulled. You give it gas and it wants to die. You pretty much have to feather the gas to drive it. Changed out the accelerator pump and it got a little better for a couple of days, then got worse. Changed hoses that looked like they needed it. Haven't found any vacuum leaks. Pump seems to be working fine. I'm open to suggestions.
