(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I can't remember how to adjust the idle speed on my D-jet. Is it done by the air bypass valve? or does this just adjust the mixture of idle speed?
I cannot find another adjustment screw on the throtle body. What am I forgetting? Thanks, Larry |

it's the adjustment screw on the throttle body. works by simply bypassing air.

Got it.
If you adjust the idle speed with the bypass valve, how does the ECU mixture valve adjust mixture (quanity of air vs fuel)? Thanks, Larry |

The manifold pressure sensor does it.

OK. I adjusted the air bypass screw on the TB and got the idle down to 1000rpm but runs rough. CO meter at 1.7 or about 14.0:1 A/F ratio. I enrich with the ECU adjustment to a CO of 2.3 or about 13.8:1. Is this the correct CO A/F setting?
Another thing, the engine is a 94mmx78mm stroker with a web cam 73 on D-jet. Thanks, Larry |

apparently so....the stock CO emissions standard was around 2%
13.8 under load is lean, but at idle, id want it closer to 12 or so like it should be when going... b |

Thanks, Larry The non stock stuff is gonna make it virtually impossible to get the idle nice. What are your HC numbers? I'm certain they're outta sight. That cam causes it, something Web Cam doesn't care to talk about. The Cap'n |

Thanks Cap'n,
I do not have an HC monitor/meter. Larry |

and whats your idle vacuum on a vacuum gauge? probably around 12-13hg at idle instead of stock 15hg. Its tough to get a good idle running a web73. Don't try to run the idle at 950rpms bump it up to 1100rpms and it should smooth out.

Thanks everyone.
Anyone have a suggestion for the timming? I have a 0degree but not the 5 or 27 degree marking. Larry |

look at the Pelican Parts article for the little pic of the timing marks and mark the fan for 27 degrees BTDC. Then time it with a lite.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) Thanks all.
Read the bird article. Cut out the templet. Marked the 27degree spot, boy, was that fun for my son and I. Lesson in vocabulary. Warm engine, both vac/advance hoses disconnected from the distributor and plugged. Timed at 3500rpm at 27degree BTDC. Adjusted the Idle to 1100rpm. Will check the CO output and adjust the ECU idle set. Now for the partial and WOT adjustments. Thanks again. Larry |
