I've seen the advice... dual carbs or FI... DON"T GO SINGLE CARB! I plan to return to FI, possibly over the winter, but unfortunately right now all I have is a single carb and it's not running very well and I want to drive the car for a while before winter.
Anyone have a single progressive carb setup that runs OK? Not looking for blistering acceleration just something driveable. My problem is giving gas off idle causes a stumble and I need to work the gas to be able to accelerate. Don't know if single carb can be driveable or if just something wrong with my setup. Have tried different settings of mixture. The car is a '71 1.7L with Weber 32/36 DFEV. |

Dude... would you freakin put that crack pipe down. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) Maybe... just maybe you really oughta FREAKIN THINK before you post. We've had the discussion before. There is nothing wrong with the factory FI system. Properly maintained with correct vacuum hoses, MPS in working order ect... it is flawless. Tell you what I'll give you my orginal FI system and you give me the money you would spend on an aftermarket system. Then I'll go buy another OEM system and pocket the difference. Come on Sprout think (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) |
