MG Midget Carburetors & Components

The MG Midget that’s sitting in your garage is a sporty classic. It came from the factory outfitted with a high-performance carb to give it plenty of oomph. Unfortunately, with time and greater mileage, its carburetor, just like any automotive components, shows signs of wear, requiring eventual replacement. The usual tell-tale signs of your carb going bad include reduced engine performance, with your sporty compact’s powerplant offering sluggish acceleration, leading to considerable reduction in power and fuel efficiency.

Another sign of a bad carburetor is black smoke coming from out of the vehicle’s exhaust, with the engine having to run on an excessively-rich air-and-fuel mixture. A carb which produces a rich fuel mixture not only wastes too much fuel but also causes the unwanted emissions increase. Overheating and backfiring are also common signs of your carburetor going bad, with the fuel mixture being a tad too lean. If your auto doesn’t start at all, then its carb’s passages can be clogged with dust or other debris.
