Dual Weber IDF 40s, Carb Rookie question... Options

[malcolm2]

Hello everyone. I will preface by saying that this is an engine from a 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

But it is in my VW Bus. Just now getting it moving down the road. Everything is new.

Carbs are new and I am a carb rookie, as well. Bought them from Aircooled.net and had them cleaned and set-up for the bus. My 914 has L-Jet FI, this group has taught me enough about that system to be dangerous.

So here is my question for the carb experts. What should the Pump Valve spray look like? It seems erratic and drippy. It kicks in 1st as I open the throttle, not a spray but pore, really. I will say that I see that in all 4.

A couple folks mentioned valve noises, now after checking them, I can believe that it may be the side to side of the rockers. That is really the only clicking I hear with these chromoly push rods.

Damn if I can remember if there was a reason.... Something came with the solid spacers and some washers. I see that I was not consistent with assembly of the washers.

They are all taking up the same amount of space, wonder if it matters. Maybe I should add more washers where I am getting the most side to side noise on adjustment??

hard to see, but IV has 4 washers in the middle. III has washers spread out. same deal on the I II side. Not consistent with the washers for some reason.
