Trying to get my freshly overhauled 2056 running right. Decided to take a closer look at how the carbs are set-up. Here is what I found:
Vents 28mm Idle jets 65 Main jets 122 Air corrector jets 195 emmulsion .2 Seems like they are set-up for a VW bus or something. Found a store on Ebay that sell Dellorto parts. The guy (Gabriele) that runs the store seems to know his Dellortos. So I ordered: Vents 34mm Idle Jets 60 Main Jets 132 Rebuid kits Need 180 Air correctors but she doesn't have any so have to run the 195's for now. I tried to order 32mm vents but he insisted that I need 34's. Attached image(s) |

Those carbs came from a Fiat, hence the odd vent and jetting sizes...
The set up you have ordered will work fine, but a 180 air with a 140 main would be my preference.. She was right- the 34 vent is *THE* vent for a dell- otherwise the progression circuits are worthless and thats what make dells so superior to everything else. |

I thought Fiat used side draft DHLA's (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
So the 195 Air Correctors will make it run lean at cruise? It runs pretty strong with the 28mm Vents, lots of bottom end. Gets kind of flat after 4,000 rpm, hope the 34's wake it up. |

I've purchased all of my Dellorto parts (I compiled an entire jetting kit) from Gabrielle.... HE is great to work with and doesn't charge too much IMO. The only problem is the time it takes to get the parts from overseas.

OEM, Fiat used IDAs on the 124 twincam in Europe. DRLAs may have been commonly used in the aftermarket. In the US, all we got on the 124 was a single DGV. 80hp instead of 120hp. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

One e-mail I shared with Gabrielle a while ago made me change my thoughts about Gabrielle's gender.... I forget specifically what it was, but my foot was probably in my mouth for something.... or I could be totally wrong about it.

Gabriele English translation/equivalent: Gabriel Origin: Derived from the Hebrew Gabri'el, composed from either gabar "to be strong" or gheber "man" and from El, abbreviation of Elohim "God." It can mean "God was strong," or "man of God" (for the human appearance the angel assumed during its apparitions). |
