I have a 2.0 type IV engine with 44idfs on it. I was going to sync the carbs today and noticed that even when not pumping the throttle the accelerator pump drips a stream of gas down into the throat of the carb enough that its pooling up a bit on the throttle plate. I'm getting popping back through the carbs. Timing is spot on and the valves are correctly adjusted. I take it this is a problem and they arent supposted to do this? It also smells like its still running to rich. I have 135 mains, 200 airs, 55 idles, 36mm vents, and no velocity stacks currently. Mixture screws are set 1.5 turns out. Its also hesitating from idle to around 3K rpm if I step on it hard like its flooding out. Time to put kits in the carbs? Does the jetting for the accelerator pump need to be changed or adjusted?

QUOTE(stock93 @ Apr 5 2004, 06:17 PM) ... even when not pumping the throttle the accelerator pump drips a stream of gas down into the throat... i had this with some 32 DCNF's... there was a bit of preload on the accel pump arms even at idle, and every little vibration squirted out a bit more gas (making the vibration worse...). i removed the accel pump actuator arms and ground in just a teeny bit of clearance, and it solved that problem. i had heard of it before, and sure enough, it happened to me. so check that you have a little clearance in the accel pump arm at idle. also (first, actually...) make sure that the throttle linkage is not preloaded at idle - that'll cause the same thing. disconnect all the linkages, check for clearance, and if there still isn's any, look to the accel pump arms. if there is some, your linkage has some preload, and you're not seeing 'real' idle... something to check ... |
