FYI for those with carbuphobia: Having piled up enough miles to break in my new engine and dial in my new Weber 34 ICT carbs, I took a road trip to Salt Lake City this weekend to attend the State Fair (you know, to see the cute little bunnies and big moo cows). The engine/carbs ran strong and steady, never missing a beat. I cruised a conservative 60-70 mph (except up a few long hills) and the carbs returned an even 30 miles per gallon on the freeway (480 miles) and 23 mpg in Salt Lake City (80 miles). So, my early assessment of the Weber carbs: I love 'em. They seem reliable and don't show any temperamental characteristics. (And they are still clean and shiny) That is my take on the Weber carbs after about 1200 miles. I will get back to you at 100,000 miles for a final report.
