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?

Brad,
What does the exhaust gas analyzer show below 3K? With that gear, seems like it would be obvious if the car was running lean do to small idle jets. You don't have a dyno at the shop for your disposal though, eh? It's always nice to be able to chase down fuel/air delivery gremlins with an EGA and a dyno. Could be that her car needs smaller air correctors too. What size does Carrie's car have now? Good luck, |
