Weber problem Options

[stock93]

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?

Thanks brad. Its always comforting to know I'm not the only one. I actually have quite a bit of experience jetting carbs having worked on motorcycles for a long time. I just really havent messed with webers much.

Well here's what happened since I posted earlier. I went out the garage to see if I could fix my problem with my right side tail light and front marker light not coming on. I noticed a new puddle under the car. The passanger side IDF throats were full of gas!!! I think the float stuck open. So I decided to go ahead and take that carb off as that was the one I was having most of the problems with anyway. I pulled it out and started tearing it down. I took the float out which had some trash in it. I was taking the fuel inlet barb off and broke one of the support parts(the split one) for the float pivot rod. Now I need a new carb top. I also had some trash in one of the idle jets.

On top of everything else while I was messing around with fixing the tail lights, the left side brake light quite working. While I had the key on trying to see what was going on with the brake light some wires decided to smoke themselves in the steering column. Now my blinkers and hazard lights dont work. My speedometer is hating me to at the moment. It will work sometimes but not others. I also have a nice vibrating wobble in the steering wheel at about 95. The trans is whinning in 3rd gear. The throttle pedal and pivot bushings need to be replaced. At least now I know I really love driving a 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) .
