Default 1979 series 3

Hi. Not sure if in correct location for this question but I have a LWB series 3 six cyl petrol landrover that has been sitting for a while. It starts but will only run under full choke and wont rev up.Just coughs and splutters then stops. Carby was fully done up. Has good compression, spark etc...Any ideas.

You should post in the Series Land Rover section of this forum.
I would still suspect the carburetor from your description.
