That's pretty cool. Never seen an Eddy (or clone) on a bug motor before. I like them because they can hold a tune- set it and forget it. FYI- you actually DECREASED the amount of accelerator pump shot by moving it to the outer-most hole. When you use the holes closer to the fulcrum it increases the pump shot. If you find it's not squirting immediately off idle using one of those inner holes it's because the pump cup is rising above the bore of the accelerator pump cavity inside the carb and isn't giving you an immediate shot of fuel. TO FIX: you're supposed to bend (yes, BEND!) the linkage going to the pump arm straighter until it does squirt immediately off idle. I mention this because you've got it on an air-cooled engine and it's a LONG way from the carb to those intake valves! You might find you need that larger pump shot volume when you nail the throttle out on the road under actual operating load.

Just being honest, watching someone rev an engine on a test stand has the value of a can of beans in a dollar store which is what's happening in all of these videos. Get this stuff on a dyno and in a car if you want this to go anywhere. Call me whatever you want, but the dynamics change radically when you apply load.
@berrysblowers64115 ай бұрын
You are correct and I put this engine together just to abuse it, and the valves are floating but the dyno I use is almost 3 hours away. No one close to me can do vw. But me abusing this engine does tell me things I need to know. And when I build new engine I brake them in on this stand and get the carb and rockers set and do a couple oil changes ans when it goes into a vehicle I have very little to do before I drive it.
