Thanks for the help y'all! I'll check the float and adjust if needed. The next thing I have planned is a distributor swap from an EA81. Hopefully these things can get my car back on the road.

I converted to Weber so there's no sight glass for the float but I did fail to check to see if it was properly adjusted before installing it. And the carb is brand new so there shouldn't be a problem with the accelerator pump.

I have a DL that I'm having a headscratching problem with. I converted it to a weber and drove around fine for a while, with a slight ignition problem. It would cut out instantly on start up if you didnt gas it for about 30 seconds. I went back and cleaned all the grounds and it didn't seem to help, found some wiring where I was losing power and that didn't do anything either. I tried replacing the cap, rotor, spark plugs and wires and ignition coil but that seemed to make the problem much worse. It runs but when you try to give it gas it sputters and cuts out. If you take your foot off in time it'll go back to idling. I can drive it around the block occasionally but it'll eventually die after a few minutes. I checked the fuel pump, fuel filter, mixture and timing and its all good. Any ideas what it might be?
