I have a 74 2l with dual weber 40 idf carbs. I took it upon myself to try and adjust them. I closed air bypass screws, turned the idle screw 1/2 turn in after initial contact, and backed out mixture screw one turn after lightly seating it. I also disconnected the linkage. I now can't get my car to start. What would be my next step? Thanks in advance.

If its all correct you should first reset the carbs to where they were when you started. (Undo what you did). Then try to start the car. If that works then maybe you can find a YouTube video that explains how to synchronize your carbs. Good luck! |
