Hard starting when hot.

Good day. May prob ako sa owner type jeep ko with 4k engine. Hard starting siya pag mainit. Pinalitan ko na ng ignition coil, ganun pa din. Na semi-overhaul na rin, changed one piston. Changed valves, valves seals, cylinder head dinala na sa machine shop. Changed battery. Ganun pa din. Hanggang ngayon nasa talyer pa din. Sabi ng mechanic, try daw namin palitan ng carb. yun ba talaga prob? Please advise.

Iyang 4k na makina carburator type dalawa lang iyan kuryente at gasolina para umaandar . Hindi mo nabanggit kung nagpalit ka na ng spark plug . Check mo rin Spark plug wire set , Distributor cap , rotor , contact point pag may bulutong hirap talagang mag start at importante correct timing para one clink pag start . Mayroon din na 4k na makina na ayaw ginagasolinahan pag start nalulunod agad . Kung matagal ng hindi nalilinis carb mo dalin mo sa kamuning maraming gumagawa roon ng carburator bago ka bumili ng bago.

Bago na rin sir spark plugs sir, ung carb ko nakailang linis na din. Alternator, tska starter bago na din. Actually sir, binalik ko uli un sa mekaniko nung Sunday, kasi mahina compression nung #3, back-job nila un. Kahapon kinamusta ko mekaniko, hard start pa din, suggetion nya changed carb daw.

Saan ba location mo . Dito kasi sa Massive sa Jose Abad Santos Manila. distributor at wholesaler sila ng AISIN Brand 4k Carburator baka mas mura. Hindi ko na alam kung magkano kuha ko hanggang mabenta ko na Corolla ko.

bloodimir,
your car might be suffering from fuel percolation. what this means is that after a run and the engine gets hot, the fuel in the carburetor and in the line between the fuel pump boil over and evaporate. then it takes time for the pump to replenish the fuel lost in the carburetor from percolation. at the base of your carburetor, there should be a plastic-like material to insulate the carburetor from the heat of the intake manifold. this symptom was predominant of the cars of the '60s up to the '70s then the fuel lines were insulated or shielded from the heat and the carburetor insulated at the base.

bloodimir,
try searching for "vapor lock" topics from motorage.com. these problems happen to carbureted vehicles specially with mechanical fuel pumps with longer suction head between the fuel tank and the fuel pump.
