Re: [T3] dialing in my carbs...


<x-charset iso-8859-1>DaveB=> Weber 34ict carbs ...
=> It seems that not enough gas

I have Solexes, not Webers, but I had a similar problem after I rebuilt my
engine, and maybe this will help. It really felt like it wasn't getting
enough gas, and I adjusted my accelerator pumps full out with no effect.
Then, just for kicks, I readjusted them to the leanest setting -- and
everything smoothed out. They had been getting too *much* gas. This may have
something to do with the cam using fuel more efficiently, I don't know, but
it worked.  Idle mixture won't make any difference to acceleration. Look for
the accelerator pump linkage.

And if you have an 009, the man's right, chuck it or maybe sell it to a kid
with a Bug.
