Cold starting engine wont idle, keep foot on accelerator to keep running, runs as though engine is missing spark.
When engine is warm will idle but roughly and at increased rev's.
Have replaced electric wiring to idle on Carburettor.
replaced all spark plugs, and all leads.
Checked all vacuum hoses for cracks.
Have replaced the carburettor.
Checked fuel line for blockages, replaced fuel filter.
It has been suggested that the carburettor is water cooled, and there may be a problem with a blockage, but I can't see where water cools the carby.

We don't have that vehicle in the US where this site is based, so we don't have access to any tech info on this unfortunately. In the US Ford quit using carbs on almost everything after 1986 due to US emissions regs getting so tight.

It can't run at all without any spark
