Afternoon!
My 914 has a 1.7L engine(original) and I am running a pair of 36IDF carbs. I have rebuilt them personally, had another relatively local 914 specialist rebuild them and I am still not entirely happy with the way they perform.... Transition and coming on to throttle up to when the main jets come on seems to be the issue. Is there a rebuilder/cleaner that everyone on here recommends? I figure some sort of ultra sonic blasting to clean out the ports/chambers that I am not able to get to would be the best. Any insight? Possibly also rejetting suggestions might be good as well. Thanks, Casey |
