QUOTE(KaptKaos @ Nov 26 2007, 07:56 PM) We have an exhaust sensor at shop class, so maybe I can see if it is running too rich or too lean. Anyone know what that would look like? John will have a chart of 'allowable' emissions at the shop |

My only suggestion is... if you're trying to adjust carbs... make sure you start with the basics first.
Check valve clearance first and foremost. Double-check spark plug gap Make sure linkage moves freely. |

have these carbs been COMPLETELY rebuilt? there are a number of very small o-rings that can complicate things if they're in poor condition. specificly, at the idle jet ports and under the idle air mixture screws. are those flow #s with the linkage hooked up? if so, disconnect the linkage where they attach throttle shafts and recheck your flow numbers. there should not be that large of a dif side to side. the pass side barrel #s should read closer than the 1.5 dif. as aaron suggested, with the linkage connected, back the idle speed screw FULLY off the stop on the pass carb, it will just be at a neutral rest at this point. recheck the flow side to side. still way off? you will need to adjust the droplink to bring it in. simply running idle speed screws in and out with the linkage connected, can push the opposite side screw of the stop.
are you using cut washers under the carb to manifold nuts? k |

I ordered the books Aaron.
Now, after saying that, I took a swing at them again tonight. I got them pretty well balanced side to side. However, while I was doing that, I noticed that my driver's side carb (the one I was having the most trouble with) was squirting fuel into the vent, while the passenger side was not. Might I have a float issue? Got an exhaust analyzer, and leaned them out. but they're not consistent. I will likely richen things up and bring it to Joe's Saturday. I'll likely go through 10 gallons of gas to get there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

I'm going to try to get to the shop Thursday night. We can take a peek at the carbs if you want to bring the car in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Have you checked your pump diaphragms? ... also, are your pump jets cinched tight in the bowls? If you don't want to wait till then, check those items, and here's the float setting guide: Attached image(s)

PS, you have to go on the run Saturday ... if you're still running rich then, you'll just have to be the last car in line (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

so the driver's side is leaking out of the pump jet at idle? pulsing out of one of them or both? one of my 40s was doing the same thing only on the pass side. i "just" could dial it out with the threaded rod but it wouldn't run without snapping back throught the carb. a full meal deal rebuild may be in order. i opted to send the 44s to Air Cooled Engineering. they are going on the car this am.

Wife has a meeting she needs to go to. I will likely richen it up and just drive to Joe's. I don't want to over-stress it if I can avoid it. Oh, can you call me. I may need your help Thursday or Friday afternoon if possible.

Sometimes less. On the weekends, I'm lucky to get 3-4 hours unless I plan it out. Unfortunately, I am losing 2 of my 4 hours this week because the wife has a meeting. So the time that I could make these changes got taken away from me this week. The only other chance I have this week is Saturday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
