Hey Everyone, 13B4port streetport, Turbo 2 Rotors, Weber 48mm sidedraft carb, TO4 turbo, FMIC. In neutral and in first gear, from exactly 2,000 rpm and on the motor cuts up and is choppy. In first, from 2,000 on, the car is choppy and makes no power until 2nd gear. It's like until the motor has load on it, it doesn't clear up. The exhaust also backfires in between shifts. I'm givng as much info as I can to maybe help this problem. Is this carb related?, timing related? Could an exhaust leak cause this? Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is pissing me off to no end.

clogged up exhaust? prolly its the carb, had a karmann ghia, she ran like **** until i finally got the carb tuned.

 

Tony, no need for ur smartass comments, if u have nothing helpful for me shut the f@#$ up, it got posted thre times by accident

 

mine kinda did the same. i disconnected the TPS. it was faulty. runs perfect now.

but i dont have the same set up as you though.

 

Heres a helpful comment, tune your carbs.

 

do carbs even have a TPS?

 

No, they dont need them.

 

well guys thanx for all the help, but it was the weld on the wastegate pipe/flange that broke, ans it made the car run awful. getting it fixed. Thanx again.
