It’s easy to go to cb performance and buy a new 009 so we kinda know the price. the vw mags sell imitation 009s but i have had issues with these Kung Fu specials.
1 what is the going rate for a used 050? 2 anybody here got one? 3 between the 2 choices, which has the preferred curve for a type 4 |

One question I had about the vacuum
my carb manifolds have a small port for vacuum but is this the correct amount of vacuum to activate the diaphram? I guess its the same amount that the motor would produce anyways... but I wasn't sure when I put my djet in and hooked up the vacuum ports.. it still ran crappy. |

All you need to do is put a vacuum gauge on it and compare that to a stock motor's vacuum signal. A thought I've had for a while now and came back to me after reading this thread: For that matter you could always use a D-Jet dizzy with carbs. Any of them would probably have a better advance curve than a 009. Think about it - the only real difference between it and the L-Jet unit is trigger points for FI. So you don't use them either just like the vacuum canister. No big deal especially if you have one laying around and you need something better than a 009. BTW - If you're carb'd and using a dizzy with a vacuum canister and not running vacuum line to the canister, it's vacuum ports don't have to be plugged. With no vacuum signal the canister won't do squat anyway. Of course if you don't plug them the canister will probably rust. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
