So, a little background.

I purchased my 1970 911t when I was living in the states and shipped it back to the UK in 2016. It is a real project but I loved it because it was genuine one owner from new. I saw the car running in the states.

So at the end of last year we pulled the car out of storage and replaced all the rubber components, fuel tank, oil tank, all service parts, brakes etc etc.

The car run very poorly and when we checked, 2 cylinders were down on compression.

We stripped the top end down and the cylinders in questions had some issues.

We sent of the cylinders to EBS in the states for boring out to 85mm and they supplied some JE 85mm 9.5:1 pistons. As this was happening we checked the bottom end, cleaned and rebuilt.

We built up the engine and also fitted a new fuel pump. The car is running its original Zenith carbs that were rebuilt when I was in the states.

So, the car is a real pig to start, like it takes ages and coaxing into life. Once it is running it runs perfectly!

Any ideas what my starting issue could be?
