My first classic Honda
When I got the car it was not maintaining idle very well but once you were driving down the road it ran great. Engine has about 3200 miles and was rebuilt by King motorsports here in Wisconsin. I ran a compression test and reading came out to being 210 212 210 209 which made me very satisfied. I narrowed it down to the carburetor needing attention. The Dellorto DHlB35 are currently waiting for the gaskets to come in sometime this week. I have kept myself busy by removing the bad tint and removing the black dye/paint that covered the oem tan color which I think is nicer.

While I'm waiting for the service kit to arrive for the carburetor. (Taking forever) I decided to to finish removing the black vinyl dye off and am very excited to see the tan color. Now just have to do the driver side and also rear seat.

Ok a little update. Just finished with the servicing on the Dellorto. Need some final adjustments and syncing that need to be done. But was very happy driving her.
Love the tan interior. Next thing is carburetor adjustments and thinking of installing these 240z seats new tan covers and foam will be done before installation. Will be going with the earlier seats with the four back vents

It was indeed rebuilt by King Motorsports herein Waukesha.
Car was running great then it started acting up again.
Came out running worse with the occasional back fires and burping through the carburetor. Checked fuel pressure gauge and its barley pushing fuel through. needle sits at zero with an occasional bounce to almost 1.5psi

Replacing fuelpump with this unit from Mr.Gasket. Old is on top new on the bottom. reading reviews on these pumps. They either do well or they last a few thousand miles. Does anyone have good experience with electric pump they would like to share.
