Taking my dual weber 2056from it's home at sea level over ebbets pass (8700 ft)next week. Doing a valve adjust before, and general check, but is there anything specific I should do? Think I will need to fiddle with the idle mixtures urging the drive?
Any honks are welcome. |

QUOTE(KELTY360 @ Jun 29 2012, 06:48 PM)  Aren't you glad you asked? You guys are killing me. I have beverage on my screen from a few of those comments. I almost hate to do a valve adjust even, since the car is pulling really well. But then, I have been in LA all week on biz, so lets she what she sounds like in the morning. The garage elves have probably been at it. Thanks Elliot, for being at least ONE positive note. |
