Hello people I have just recently purchased a sj 413! I know there has been a few topics about carbs on these! But went offroaded yesterday and went through a few puddles, ditches, mud etc: Then half way in the middle of no where it kept cutting out, Everytime I let go of the throttle it stalled! Just had a look at the carb today and cant really find anything wrong isit the carb!  :(  
Help please.... :lol:
Many Thanks Shane

Yes just checked that now and its a little damp but just going to shoot and get new plugs, leads, dizzy cap and rotary arm thingy! I was playing about with the screw on the carb but i dont know what I've done! How do you know when the mixture and air is right? :(

hey mate ive got the same problem. theres a throttle srew on the front of the carb if you adjust it you can up the throttle the second one down, but it really annoys me as it wont stay at a decent rpm. mine has a problem with the choke it sticks so one min it'll cut out next it'll be at 2.500 rpm. let me know if you find a proper solution other than a su carb. cheers

ben/shane
there is no really any better way to fix the standard carb you really are better off fitting an su conversion to both sj's..
the trouble with the standard carb is there so complex its just to time consumming to find the fault

Just went out and started it! It started ok and was ticking over at about 1800rpm! (bit high i think) Then as soon as I turned my lights on she reved up to 3000rpm! :s  Anyone have any ideas? Havnt changed dizzy, leads, plugs etc: yet but just wondered if this was also an electrical fault?
Thanks
Shane

Hovis: Whats webers like?? They like su's! Just rung rhino rays by me and he said complete for a brand new su carb and everything is 450quid :o way out my price range for a carb but then again I dont know what they retail at!

I dont really know much about su carbs!
Silly question what does SU stand for? and what else should I look out for? Carb wise of other vehicles that would fit!

Hello again! Right, Just changed the HT leads, plugs, dizzy and rotary arm, It runs better then it did but its sitting at 2000rpm and I cant get it to tick over any lower! I've adjusted the screws on the carb in/out but it only goes higher so just going to get an su now and hopefully it will sort it!
Any other suggestions untill I get an su sorted?
Cheers
