Hello. I'm new to the forums here but have been reading and learning a lot. Thank you.
I have a pair of Weber 40s I plan to use on a 2056 I'm building. The carbs are used, and I don't know how they're jetted. Can anyone recommend a base line? I'm at an altitude of 486 feet. I appreciate any suggestions! Steve |

145 isn't out of the ballpark if he's using an ethanol blended fuel. The 220 AC jet will also lead to a leaner mixture at higher velocities. 200 is base with with less than leading to enrichment and greater than leaning the mixture.
X3 on checking for vacuum leaks and increasing idles. You also didn't state if it was exhaust or carb pops. Also check for exhaust leaks if exhaust pop. |
