Went to a specialist carb place and they told me the exact jets i needed so i brought them...fitted them and now its running worse

However it isn't running as rich as it was but seems to only be running on 3 cylinders or just misfiring loads. lots of banging and popping going on. Need to check the HT leads and plugs etc next.

annoying but atleast i know i have the correct jets now. The guy said the jets are good for 175 Bhp

Don't suppose anyone could tell me what jets they're running on there c20xe?!...

Im pretty sure its not running lean, cleaned the plugs up before fitting the jets and now they've gone black again!

The emulsion tubes are £9.95 each. Spose its a fair price for what they are but still cost alot.

I will get it RR'd but theres two issues with this:

1. Cost
2. My engine needs running in
