914World.com _ 914World Garage _ delay on acceleration

Posted by: starman Sep 24 2010, 01:03 PM

Hii i have a 914/4 72. with new dual webers preset for my engine size. However i have alittle delay on acceleration. It runs fine in idle, but the second i push the accelerator it hessitates before it accelerates. Once the acceleration kicks in there is no problem, runs great, alittle popping when you take the foot of the accelerator, but nothing major.

I have 2 idears.
1 is the accelerator jets in the webers, might be to small. Im not sure this is the problem, as i sence at smell of gas.

2 is the advance weights in the distributor, are they fit for carbs? can you ajust them, or should i change the distributor?

Could it be something else?

It may be as simple as adjusting te fulcrum on the accelerator pump. Look down the carb and push the throttle linkage. Does fuel squirt right away? Is there any delay with the squirt? Any delay will make it act like you describe.
