Kwikchip euroline 160 bogging down

Recommended Posts

I have a kwikchip 160 and the engine starts runs and revs up fine but as soon as you engage the flywheel and show it a branch it bogs down and take ages to build up to full speed again.

 

I've changed the fuel filter and fuel pump also had a full engine survice.

 

Just wondered if anyone has any ideas on what else it could be

 

Thanks

Do the belts feel taut when the engine is sat on them? Does the rotor feel that it turns freely enough? What engine is it? Is it a turbo Lombardini with ascrewed turbo? Is the engine breathing okay? Are you 100% sure that the fuel system is good? What kind of fuel pump is it?

How many horses is it rated at? Are you sure about the belts? Are the Vee pulleys shiny at the bottom of the Vee? I would have suggested at fuel, belts or maybe the belief that it should be better but you got what you got!
