Poping up the intake

  1. Popping up the intake
    My type 4 engine with twin dellorto drla carbs runs well apart from a consistent pop up the intake at high torque in the lower end of revs . I’m at a loss to the reason . Is it the lockdown pumps possibly ?
     
  2. A”pop” or “sneeze” out the top is lean running.

    My guess is a blocked idle jet. Not uncommon.
    You can pull your plugs and see which one is white or just clean all the jets.
