Your videos are first class, Steve. Even my wife likes watching them and she has zero interest in cars. I was a little surprised at your comment about the Spanish Webers . Can't be that bad as they have been making them in Spain for 30 years and they're still in business. Regarding the Idle Mixture Screws, if the Weber is a 151, these screws will be the finer thread and taper allowing for finer adjustments but requiring more turns. one and a quarter with the coarser screw would be about three with the finer later type. BTW, Steve, I have a very similar set up to your GT for track days and vintage racing but mine is a roadster. Greg.

I have been tuning the low speed circuit for over 20 years. Idle jets. Idle feed restrictions. Did it on a holley on a 429 ford . Went from 0.031 idle feed restrictions to 0.036" idle feed restrictions by test driving and drilling them 0.001" at a time. The car owner came back with a complaint. He can't pull away from any stop no matter how he feathers the throttle. He spins the rear tires. Did that to a straight six dodge dart. Now it will burn rubber too. When i use a air fuel ratio gauge with an oxygen sensor in the exhaust. I bring the rpms up to around 1700 rpms. Which in just below the speed the primary main jets start to trickle fuel. That lets me know if the idle jets are lean or rich. Thank you for the great video. Years ago i talked to a nascar carb manufacturer about billet metering blocks for holley carbs with vacuum operated plungers to shut off the idle circuit during engine braking on short tracks where flames come out the exhaust as the high manifold vacuum just pulls all kinds of fuel from the idle feed holes. He liked the idea. About 3 races from the end of the next season. Which was a short track. Close to the end of the race. The announcers said the car out in front does not seem to have flames from his exhaust during cornering. They pulled up the pit records. The guy in front was pitting every 56 laps. Where everybody else was running out of fuel at 51 or 52 laps. Fuel mileage during a race can win a race. Careful searching might find weber idle stop solenoids. With an adjustable vacuum switch hooked to manifold vacuum. One could set the switch to turn off the idle stop solenoids during high speed engine breaking to save fuel during a race. I also like using the weber and solex air bypass screws as that allows me to preset the throttle plate to expose exactly enough of the idle transition slots or ports. Getting the best fuel economy and instant throttle response.

Wayne343p. Hi, I have the bypass screws on my triple 45 152's. DS3shooter advises to close these fully. As I understand it, you are setting the butterflies to just before the first transition hole (as he suggests) and then using the air bypass screws to set your idle speed. Is that correct?

@@AM4project , I assume that is under acceleration, that typical relates to the acceleration jet size which is to large... in essence you flood the engine with fuel squirted by the acceleration pump through acceleration jet into the barrel... The engine is flooded in a fist instance with fuel , but after a short while that fuel starts to be consumed and gets less, at that time the engine picks back up... Reduce the acceleration jet with 5 as a starter. the other problem could be that its not enough fuel injected, but here the engine will bog and then slowly accelerate...in this case increase the jet by 5. There are other ways to adjust this by changing the hole in the accelerator pump feedback jet so that either less fuel is pushed back in the well ( in essence increasing the volume of the injected fuel) or the opposite. If acceleration is an issue without a quick depressing of the throttle then you have either an issue with the main jets or emulsion tube type.... In each case , to lean mixture during acceleration will be noticed in puffing in the carbs, a to rich mixture during acceleration will be manifested by black smoke in the exhaust and bangs in the exhaust ( on burned fuel that ignites)..both situations will cause the engine to bog down momentarily

Great explanation about the relationship between the idle jet and the number of turns needed on the idle mixture screws. Also good you highlighted the importance of the position of the butterfly with respect to the progression holes - as per the Weber manual the edge of the butterfly should completely cover the first progression hole. The problem is that if you then adjust the idle speed using the idle speed screw this will move the edge of the butterfly - too much adjustment could lead to a less than optimum performance.

I had this same problem when adjusting the idle speed (butterfly) screw. It is impossible to see properly when the carb is mounted on the intake manifold. The way I worked around it is: When the carb is off the car adjust the idle speed screw until the first progression port is just about to be uncovered and mark the position of the screw relative to some convenient feature on the carb. Then back off the idle speed screw while counting the number of turns until the butterflies are just fully closed. Make a note of the number of turns on a pad of paper. Each time you make an adjustment write it down... +1 -1/4 +2 -1/2 (or whatever)... takes some concentration but once you get in the zone it goes pretty quick and you will know where you are. If you lose your place, like you get a phone call (aargh!), just back off the idle speed screw until it it just touches the lever and start over.

Thanks a lot for this video, I'm tuning a pair of 45 DCOE Sherriberg (the chinese replicas) and now I know that I need one or two sizes up the current defaults 55F8's. Idle gets good at about 2,5 turns on the mixture screws, AFR gauge says about 13:1 at idle speed but once I push the throtle only a bit, it goes down to 20:1 and the engine hesitates and backfires. I have a set of 50F9's and another set of 60F9's. If none of these works I'll have to buy a new set lol, and again thanks, you strongly cleared my doubts!!

The idle speed is more important for cam/follower life. A slow turning engine gives more time for the oil to be wiped off, though obviously there is less oil flow at low speed, irrespective of cam profile and valve spring pressure. IE a historic F3 Ford MAE needs to idle above 2000 rpm, a Ford Pinto with a bizarre drag racing profile needed 4000 idle speed to prevent the cam from literally wiping out

have look at one of the video' that I made on tuning the carb for acceleration and driving on t he track... Is the acceleration recovering after some time ? In a first instance I would check that the acceleration pump pushed fuel out the two nozzels on the top... you can do that without a running engine... just push that throttle and look for the squirts. The squirt can measured but if they are shortly present and not to excessive then that is ok.. If not present h then you either have a ripped acceleration pump membrame, or the feedback valve stays open. If it is to much you will have to adjust the feedback opening.

Does this tune up work in Weber 40 DCOM? I think my air/fuel misture screws are way to out and I do have some trouble getting from partial acceleration to full throttle it bogs down and then I have a power surge

Thank you Steve! I feed your videos extremely educational. Does the 3.75 to 1.5 turns rule apply to the older DCOEs that have the idle screws recessed within a cavity in the carburettor and an O-ring underneath the screw head? I have read that this is the older type of DCOE (non-emission type). Thank you once again.

Really nice video, I have twin 36 dcnf on my 1.1 Fiesta, all running standard jetting from the Ford factory parts. I'm no expert and took a minute to get her running nice, I will say though my idle screws are around 3 1/2 turns out on most and I think 1 is on 3 turns. Would you say I should experiment with larger idle jets or is it different depending on carb types, dcnf dcoe ect. Current idle jets are a 0.47, she does cough a bit when cold but 20 seconds of choke and ready to drive ( daily car ) Thanks very much and great videos as always :)

Hi, remember that thet 3/4-1.5 turns only apply to the DCOE, much depends on the threat that those screws have. As far as I recall the DCNF has a finer threat , so that would be normal, if you engine progresses nice and smooth then there is no need to change that

Thank you for such an informative video. My 4 cylinder on 40 mm dellortos bogs when the throttle is opened quickly but fine when opened smoothly. Does this mean it’s running too lean on the progression ? I will check the number of turns on the idle as per your guidance

@D3Sshooter 2 жыл бұрын
hmmm, when it bogs it can mean that the acceleration pump injects to much fuel, especially if after the bog it picks up again and you have a black puff . if it remains slow and blows back in the carb its to lean (acceleration pump)

What was shared was max in: 1.5 turns and max out: 3/4 turns. This is for the older Italian DCOEs. What should the figures before for the Spanish 151s?

yes indeed that is for the original webers, it all depends on after market types on the shape of the screw and treat

Love the videos - amazingly helpful and I have learned tons. Thank you. Quick question - just bought a used set of 45 DCOEs for my Datsun 510. Previously had 40s. I noticed the 45s do not have a secondary Venturi tube that can slide out (as per my 40s and in your videos) however they have a bolted in support for the main jet. The main venturis appear normal. Is this a factory option or a modification by the previous owner? I have pictures but not sure how to send them to you. Much thanks in advance. Jeff

Some have smaller treading then others so it can be that yours has that small tread so 3.5 is ok. if it is standard tread then you should increase the idle jet ( fuel) with one step up
