Have you checked the plugs for colour- correct mixture should give a milk coffee result, but will be sooty if last few minutes of running were on choke or idling. Has it ever run well and something changed recently, or it was always like this?
From Dr Google:
For a Solex 32 PAI carburetor, the recommended float level is typically around 22mm (measured from the carburetor body to the top of the float when the float is fully closed), however, always consult your specific vehicle's service manual for the most accurate setting as slight variations may exist depending on the model.
Key points about float level adjustment:
- Importance:
Setting the correct float level ensures the carburetor delivers the proper fuel mixture to the engine, preventing issues like poor acceleration, rough idling, or excessive fuel consumption.
- Checking the level:
To check the float level, you need to disassemble the carburetor, remove the float bowl, and measure the distance from the carburetor body to the top of the float with a suitable gauge while the float is fully closed.
- Adjusting the level:
Most carburetors allow for slight float level adjustments by bending a small tab on the float arm. Bending the tab upwards will raise the float level, while bending it downwards will lower it.
