Signs Your Classic Porsche Needs Carburetor Maintenance

The carburetor helps deliver the proper mix of fuel and air to your engine. This ensures your engine functions properly without overheating or consuming too much fuel. If your carburetor malfunctions, you may start to notice a variety of issues while driving from less efficient fuel consumption to engine misfires. Other signs of needing carburetor maintenance include:

• Difficulty starting: when the carburetor is not working, you may find your engine turning over, cranking for longer than usual, or just not starting altogether.
• Abnormal smoke and increased emissions from the exhaust: when the engine is not getting the right mixture of air and fuel, you can start to see black smoke or increased emissions from your tailpipe.
• Hesitation while accelerating: if your vehicle stalls or you feel a “bottoming out” feeling while accelerating your carburetor may not be communicating with your engine correctly.
• Stalling or shaking while idling: if your engine stalls while at low speeds or you feel excessive shaking while idling, your engine is not getting the right ratio of fuel to air.

If you notice any of these signs, we encourage you to schedule a service appointment with Porsche Ontario as soon as possible.
