Who's running the CB jet doctor kits in their Dell's or Webers?
Theoretically they make sense, but I'm reluctant to pound a lead plug into the idle air inlet without first hearing from someone who has used these kits. |

You must have Webers, no plug required. With the Dell kit you have to plug the idle air inlet with lead plugs supplied in the kit.

These are really only for off-road cars that tend to clog idle jets do to dirt and dust getting past the filter and building up at the base of the carb. The "Jet Doctor" plugs the air correction "jet" built in to the base of the carb and makes it a stack affair like the main jets. This moves that "hole" up in to the air making it less likely to clog.

Not exaclty where or how they work, but they are intended to reduce the occurrance of idle jet clogs. |

Jet doctors work great, and not just off-road. Another hint, put a little grease on the tops and bottoms of the air filters, keeps the crap from leaking in in the first place.
