I am not getting enough fuel to the carbys in my Honda prelude 1984

The fuel pumps the fuel into the engine from the tank. If you can hear it running , then you need to hook up a pressure gauge to see how muck pressure you have. If you have enough pressure then check the injectors to see if they are getting current from the computer to inject the fuel to the cylinders.

timing, vacuum leak, or compression in engine gone!

The transmission dipstick has a yellow loop handle and if you're in front of your vehicle facing the engine, it's to your lower left front right in front of the bottom radiator hose. Hope this helps. Good luck :O)

there are only two fuel filters on the car, one in the engine compartment if you are faceing the car from the front it will be coming from the firewall on the left side next to the heater hoses, look for a red braided hose and you will see the brass looking filter in line on the red hose. the other one is behind the LEFT rear wheel, take the wheel off and you will see the filter next to the shock. it may have a small basket on it so you will need to remove the basket and you will see the filter right there. it will be a white plastic one. hope this is helpful good luck

Carbuterors are an antiquity nowadays. You can try aftermarket or speed shops, but they are getting expensive also. Best bet is to find someone to rebuild the one you have

The engine and emission control system covered by this information operate on a combination of vacuum and electrical signals; they are extremely prone to malfunctions due to improper vacuum connections. If a component does not receive vacuum at the correct time, it cannot function when needed. When working under the hood, pay close attention to the routing and placement of every hose.

Hope this helped; TY for using Fixya (remember comment and rated this).

I would start with fuel filter. They are cheap and this is the problem they cause.

most likely battery voltage is to low when cranking over.
try a better battery

possibly could be a base plate gasket leak from under carb, very common, or a vacuum hose leak
