Subject:      dual carb

Does anybody has experience with a dual carb? My vanagon does not have the= =20 full power, maybe 10 or 20 hp are missing. I guess it is the second chamber= =20 of my dual carb.

Here are the symptoms: Some power is missing while accelerating and only in= =20 the fourth gear it does not reach its maximum speed. But sometimes the=20 lacking power is suddenly there for five or ten seconds, occassionally even= =20 for some minutes. Really strange and confusing.

Any hints are appreciated. Dirty jets? Throttle valve of the second chamber?

T.S. 83=B4 vanagon=20
