My Zambezi Green 2.0 has dual Weber 34's ( the single barrels). The car has always run on the hot side. I have read many times that a lean condition (as well as many other factors such as timing, valve adjustments, etc) can cause an engine to run hot.
My question is, are Weber 34's enough carb for a 2.0 engine? Can they flow enough fuel at RPM to keep the engine from running lean? |
