I'm helping my friend get his car working correctly. We are having some carb issues. What is the process for getting the correct idle jets? I have read instructions on the redline website but I'm still having issues. The 914 is a 4cyl 2270 with dual weber 44 Idf's.
I read something about removing the main stacks then driving around. Can somebody please explain this method further. |

What you're describing about the AFR sounds like narrow-band activity. Something is weird with your setup. You need to get that working right as the first step. Most AFR setups can be programmed to act like a narrow band sensor. Lets work on that first. What model AEM gauge do you have?
stugray - Narrowband AFR gauges are nearly useless. Wideband are very useful. |
