I set my motor up and everything is running great, but I can feel a like it has a lil hesitation.Without throwing a light on it, I cant get rid of it. I know that the distributor is off, just enough to effect perfection.
How have the V8 guys set up there 914's so that they can time them with easy? Thanks, |

Unless your advance curve is woefully flat I wouldn't think your hesitation is due to timing. Hesitation is usually traced to a fuel issue and my guess is that you're not getting a quick shot of fuel when you step on it. Most carbs have different settings for the accelerator pump, ranging from a short stroke to a long stroke and one or two positions in between. Check to see where you're at and adjust for longer stroke if possible.
Otherwise, it may be a lean jetting problem, which will require a bit more work, but still a very manageable problem. If you are running lean, get it corrected before you have more problems than a hesitation. Good luck. Tom |
