I borrowed a AF meter from a friend and was wondering what is the best process for reading and setting the mixture.
Can I take readings at idle and hold the throttle at 3k and take another reading or do i need to drive it with it under load? based on readings which adjustment do I move first static or dynamic? |

I have studied that
One problem i have run into is when I richen the static I have had problems getting the fuel pump shut off arm bent to where it doesn't hit the contacts in the switch that shuts the pump off. Don't know if I am bending this improperly or what. Jake had mentioned in a previous post about possibly needing to drill a hole in the throttle plate to let more air into the engine, which I haven't done yet. but I just posted this into the original thread hopefully he may reply with some advice/confirmation Idle is somewhere between 300 and 500 rpm with AF reading 26-28 If I crack the throttle and bring the rpms up to 900 I get numbers closer to 16-17 (this was just a first glance) which lead me back to the 1/8" hole in the throttle plate. Does this point to needing that hole so I can even get the idle up to where the AF is giving relevant logical readings? |
