Just finished a new 2 liter engine build with Webcam for carbs installed.
New Raby heads, Hoffman Eng, are used. New 44IDF Webers installed with cross bar linkage. Valve lash to spec and timing is spot on. Carbs are synched. Continue to hear a slight popping from only the pass side carb at partial throttle positions. Car starts and idles with plenty of power thru acceleration, but who knows I haven't driven one in over 25 years. It's a hoot to drive except for the Issue. Played with jetting to no avail. Any Carb guru's out there able to provide input to solve this dilemma. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

This is interesting since I am having the same problem. Also popping on deceleration. I had this problem coming home from rt66. I overhauled the right carb and problem went away. After about a month, the problem reappeared. I then got off my ass and overhauled the left carb and problem still exists. After 13 years of trouble free operations (except for a few clogged idle jets easily fixed) I am faced with popping and back firing. Otherwise it seems to run great. Sorry if I highjacked this thread.
