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.

ACN recommends using the port over cyl 4. I use the anti pulse when running dual carbs as well.

I haven't cracked my Tomlinsons in awhile, but I set my air bypass the same as Richard from PMO sets his. All closed, whichever chamber is the lowest, open to bring it up. Should only need a few turns. Anything excessive and you might have a vac leak. I think you were able to sync all 4 chambers so that's probably not a problem.

Now that you have them back together, turn your car on to fill the fuel bowls. Then turn off the car and manually operate the throttles to see the squirt volume. Both sides/all 4 should have the same shot.
