[@tommygazelle]

I spent so much time tuning my single 44 IDF. Even with a huge cam, vacuum advance made a huge difference. Having a smooth running engine is underrated!

[@coldblazinfire]

Thank you sir for sharing your valuable knowledge with us. Excellent advice for anyone who is interested in tuning or even thinking about tuning their engine. After watching your videos I am removing my big cam from my 1776 and installing the stock cam. I can’t get the big cam motor to idle for nothing.

[@TheEZGZ]

Glad it was helpful! Nothing wrong with stock or a cheater cam like the Engel w90

[@RodderFiles]

i had a double barrwl progressive on my 1641, took the mech about a week of driving to get the carb tuned in just right, an it was a nice carb for my freeway driving , good info, the best reviews are from the consumer an not the manufacturer

[@TheEZGZ]

StrtRodder100 Thanks Kenny

[@jerrykelley9863]

Just starting out, purchased a fiberglass buggy, tirying to get the center mount Dellorto 40 to run correct. Just for cruzing around town, not worried about performance. I'm told it is a 1835, I love all the info from your videos. I have watched all the carb videos many times. Thanks keep filming, J Kelley

[@kenshelhamer9816]

a lot of the problem is the stumble, or soggy bottom, but it's due to lack of heat beneath the carb. The manifold is cold and the fuel falls out of the air moving thru the manifold and it goes lean. got to have a very warm manifold beneath the carb to get the driveabilty back. If your in the desert with over 100 degree F ambient may be ok with out heat...otherwise, got to get it hot.

[@RustyGlovebox]

Yep, living the dream! EZ I like the IDF 40 single for the beetle, but I had an a/c also and didn't want duals tucked in there for some of the same reasons you said. Very good points

I have just spent this winter replacing duel carbs rebuilding them adding a cat. Conv. All I am attempt to pass emissions here in Nevada!! 😢. So I just installed new single idf manifold and card linkage (linkage was the worst)🤣🤣. Numbers on the 4 gas were double than acceptable before. Wouldn’t even fail the test as Co2 was over 19% 😊. Hopefully my single idf will at least fail it so I can get a wavier . 😂😂 as I have spent double required

[@TheEZGZ]

That's a bummer. I didn't know Nevada was tuff on emissions!

[@raymondheath7668]

20 years ago I welded up a set of type I dual port manifolds to accept Bus Type IV dual Solex. I can't say I had very good results, but then I wasn't very good at engineering equal flowing manifolds and proper linkage. My point is that the search for the streetable affordable dual carbs is endless

My single 44 Weber works great!

[@TheEZGZ]

I'm happy for you. share the details

[@johnmurphy4323]

It started when my neighbor gave it to me attached to the chrome intake. I installed it on my 1776cc dual-port engine with 044 heads and a 110 Engle cam. The heads have been hemisphered. Turns out that the carb was originally setup for wide open throttle on a Baja Bug and was just too much for my street Bug. I had the carb venturis reduced in size and rejetted. Has been working great ever since.

[@geargriden19]

I'm sold on the carb! lol. Glad it worked good for ya EzGz! Also good to hear you're out and about having fun. Have a good'n

[@12radiolondon]

I currently have a twin Solex carburettor set up. Would you recommend conversation to a single carburettor, please?

[@TheEZGZ]

Probably not. You can get good performance and economy from dual carbs and make more power. If the engine has a performance camshaft going to a single carb will create smooth running problems. You will also need a different intake manifold that has heat and a vacuum advance distributor A stock 34 PICT 3 will work great with stock camshaft

[@bryanmeade7327]

EZ, I have a 1641 with a 40 IDF. What jets are you using? I can't get mine to run right. It's to rich. I have new jets. I probably have the ones you used. Thanks in Advance.

[@lukewheeler4888]

Looking at this carb for a 1776 build. Stock cams, stroke, ect. Really looking for OEM plus performance. What carb would you recommend? Torn between this and several other options and having a hard time sifting through all the internet fluff. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

[@TheEZGZ]

With a fresh 1776 your way far ahead on power. If your serious I would start with the stock 34 PICT 3 carb with a 130 main jet and use a stock muffler with big bore tips. The key to making any center mounted carb work well and keeping the fuel in suspension is manifold heat and nobody did it better that the stock factory. The cams are the same on the 1300, 1500 and 1600 engine because it works so well. I recommend you drive this car for a few thousand miles and let other folks drive it without telling them what you have. They will wish it was there's. If after this you don't mind constant tinkering and don't mind tight quarters I would suggest Dual Kadron Solex 40 carbs, with some cheap headers. All VW engines that are often revved over 4.500 RPM should have heavy duty single springs. If your rocker arm geometry is correct you can still stick with good used stock push rods. After 30 years of owning and driving VW cars and busses countless miles on and off road. Spending enough money to buy a brand new Porsche the 1776 with stock cam and heads is my pick of the littler. If you want something bigger and faster save your money and go all out but keep your 1776 stock to put back in when you want to enjoy a reliable ride.

[@donaldyeager6647]

So I have the vacuum in and the engine races,I have no control over the throttle? Any suggestions? Im about to tear the whole thing back down and run my stock carberator!

[@TheEZGZ]

+Donald Yeager I would love to help but almost nothing to go on. Sounds like you have fuel and air from someplace? Throttle plate closed.

[@TheEZGZ]

Get a brand new set of Dual 40 Kadrons and with a good exhaust it will really wake up that engine. carcraftstore.com/kadroncarbkitbrosalsolex.aspx

[@SendIt2121]

so I've got this exact same setup on a Baja. Center Mount 40 IDF in the process of redoing the entire intake system. I'm skeptical that I will be able to get it to idle with the butterflies all the way closed. Should I try it or should I just go ahead and drill the holes like you did? I understand that the minimal amount of air coming around those closed butterflies was designed to run one cylinder instead of two.

[@TheEZGZ]

I had to drill the holes because the engine was a 1800 and the bypass screws would not work. You must have heat in the manifold for it to work right when weather is under 75 degrees. The refrigeration effect drops the temp 36 degrees and the fuel becomes liquid and won't burn. If you do have to drill the holes start with something under 1/16 and test it. Put the holes on the other side of the throttle shaft away from the progression parts. I did mine wrong. You also need a 0-bypass valve on the accelerator pump inlet. I also had to run 55 idle jets and it still had a flat spot

[@tomswonderfulworld]

Good stuff Greg

[@TheEZGZ]

tomswonderfulworld Thanks for checking in Tom

[@timothykenefick-noaafedera3007]

Have you ever considered checking out Throttle Body Fuel Injection, such as Holley makes. They have a single barrel as well as a two and four barrel ones.

[@TheEZGZ]

I saw a vid on a VW Baja with one. It wasn't to detailed. I checked out the price and then there is still that manifold heat issue. CB makes one with just a throttle body and the injectors are on the in manifold at the head $$$$$$ If people won't buy it there won't be price war's to make them cheaper. I think thats why all these copy cat carbs are available.

[@SendIt2121]

Really appreciate you answering all these questions it's a ton of help when you have little experience. Here's another one for you? On my 40 IDF when the throttle plates are closed they just barely cover all of the progression holes. When I go to tune the carb if I screw the idle screw in at all it will start to uncover that first progression hole. Is that normal? I thought I heard you say in one of your videos that all the progression ports are supposed to be hid while the vehicle is at idle..

[@TheEZGZ]

The throttle plate should be directly over the first progression hole. The throttle plate is not round so it allows some air to go past. The needle valves are then used to smooth out your idle. You must use the correct size carb and venturi that Weber recomends for the displacement of your engine or they won't work properly at idle or low RPM. The Individual Runner carbs, IDF, have individual Idle jets and mixture screws for each barrel. They also have an additional air bleed screws and lock nuts. This is not used for idle adjustment or idle quality. The settings for these screws should be closed. Standard IDF Settings: Speed screw ¼ to ½ turn in after contact with lever maximum. Mixture Screw 1 turn out from lightly seated. “Lean Best Idle” Procedures After confirming the linkage allows the throttle lever to seat against the Idle Speed Screw. Back off the Idle Speed Screw, then turn the screw in until it contacts the throttle lever and turn it in ½ turn. Turn in the Mixture Screw in until it “LIGHTLY” seats, then back it out 1 full turn. Loosen the 8mm wrench size nuts on the “air bleed” screws, turn in the air screws until it seats then tighten the nut. a. Start the engine, it will run slow and like a tractor. As long as it will stay running, the idle speed is not important at this point. b. First, turn in the mixture screw until the engine runs worse, then back out the screw ¼ turn at a time. The engine should start to smooth out. Continue to back the screw out ¼ turn at a time until the screw does nothing or runs worse. Then turn it back in to the point where it ran best. You want to tune the engine by sound. Adjust each mixture screw to the best, fastest and smoothest running point. Do this procedure with each mixture screw. c. Now you may adjust the Idle Speed Screw. It should be sensitive and only require ¼ turn in or out to achieve the idle speed you like. d. These carbs are commonly used in pairs, this makes the synchronization important, be sure to bring the high flowing carb down to the low flow carb. Then bring them both up to “proper” Idle speed. The Idle Speed Screws are not opened more than ½ turn in. e. After synchronizing multiple carbs, reconfirm steps b. c. & d. “Simple Rules for Calibration” If your mixture screw is out more than one turn like 11/2 turns then your idle jet is too lean, go up one half size on the Idle jet. If you mixture screw is not out one full turn, something like only 1/2 turn out from seated then your Idle jet is too rich, go down one half size on the idle jet. This is all based on the important fact that your speed screws are not open more than ½ turn if they are then that is also an indication that you have a lean Idle circuit. You are cheating by opening the throttle plates and exposing additional progression holes in the transition.

[@Tenkaichibudokai22]

hi man, I have dual webers dcoe 45 mounted on a 1,8L BMW M10 engine, the question I have is I've been using a redline electric pump at 8psi approximately. do you know what would be the ideal psi for this kind of setup?

[@TheEZGZ]

3 1/2 to 4 psi max with a 5mm or 5/16 I.D. Fuel Line

[@Tenkaichibudokai22]

TheEZGZ thanks man! I did just that but when I hit the gas pedal the engine would starve, and when I raised the pressure back to 6psi the problem was gone, do you know the reason for this? I can tell you the gap between the carb covers and the floats is way above 13mm, do you think float level has a relation with psi and possible engine starvation? or should I look somewhere else? thanks again man, I've watched all your Weber videos and they've been so helpful!!

[@renevaldiviamorones9834]

hello GZ, I'm from Mexico in baja, I have a 1775cc in my vw vocho I have a carb 34 pic and a distributor and toyota 22r coil installed in my engine, "it's a special job"; * I want to put a 44 or 40 idf, which carburetor you recommend and which brand of distributor and coil you recommend so that it has a good performance, on the road and out of road

[@TheEZGZ]

carcraftstore.com/carbsets.aspx A SVDA vacum distributor with blue coil will work with most single carb set ups. However your engine might make a lot of Horsepower but drivability and gas mileage will be low. Expect 10 MPG or less. You really should be running higher compression and use 93 premium octane to get the most benefit. Good Luck with your project

[@TheEZGZ]

Great Cam choice. I have one in my 2110. Works best with dual carbs. 44 idf is to big unless you spend the money to get 28 mm venturis like the 40 comes with and a box full of jets. You need heat in the manifold or only drive on 90 degree days.

@@TheEZGZ Best I go with the 40 IDF than the 44 GZ? I hope for a smooth Street machine with a lot of spunk. I watch you and Darin the most. Thanks! Cancelling NETFLIX......

[@TheEZGZ]

@@lew9215 If you want power, smoothness and economy get the dual 40's. Port on Port is the best way to go. Buy new from a reputable company that will prejet and give you support if you have problems. Your engine is not big enough for the 44's. IMHO The dual 40's should work right out of the box. Trust me...... SCAT C35 Type 1 Camshaft is designed for 1.1-1.25 rockers, and it's specs are .381" Cam Lift, .420"/1.1s and .476/1.25s, with 285 degrees of advertised duration, and 246 degrees of duration at .050", on a 108 Lobe Center. SCAT camshafts have been around seemingly FOREVER, but there is a reason for that (their grinds work well!). While not as State Of The Art as a Web-Cam or a newer FK Series Engle, these are great for the enthusiast that has to watch his pennies! This cam is similar to the Engle W110 grind; it will run like a bag-o-nails with the stock carburetor, so you have to upgrade to at LEAST dual 1bbl carbs, or a single 2bbl. But it's Velvety smooth with dual 2bbls! This cam requires HD Single Springs and Bolt On Rocker Shafts with 1.1 rockers. If you decide to step up to 1.25 rockers you MUST have dual springs! This is also compatible with stock Single Port (barely) or Dual Port Heads, and it works best with Compression from 8.0-8:5:1. Power band is from 1500 to 5000. This cam is known as a "3 Bolt" cam, compatible with "early" oil pumps. The oil pump MUST be compatible with the engine case, and the camshaft, for proper engine lubrication!

The heat risers to the intake from the exhaust must be connected and work well. Most after market exhaust headers will not work properly for this. You must have heat, even in the hot summertime.

Why drill the butterflys when the are air bypass screws?

[@TheEZGZ]

1. The bypass screws do not flow enough 2. The Weber book suggested doing it, where and how big to make them. Is that good enough for you?

[@donaldyeager6647]

where does the vacuum advance go on the single duel carb shown?

[@TheEZGZ]

+Donald Yeager You would probably want a mechanical advance dizzy. If you want the vacumm you would drill and tap the manifold anywhere convenient. A gas airplane hobby store might have a threaded hose fitting you could use???

[@crpth1]

TheEZGZ - Correct me if I´m wrong but I do believe the original vacuum dizzy. Took it´s vacuum signal not from "after the butterfly" (manifold), but from before the butterfly. As such it will never work properly if connect as described. On the other hand a vacuum connection in the manifold is marvelous for connecting a vacuum gauge. Which for me is still the best way to tune that bloody thing that consumes all our time... LOL :-) Either case top tips on this video. Thanks for sharing. ;-)

[@davidphillips6827]

You didn't even Greece the top and bottom of your air filter, how do you expect to keep from getting any dirt inside the carburetor with that garbage filter? The only filter you can put on that carburetor to actually keep it free of debris, is a UMP paper filter.

[@TheEZGZ]

I get a good seal using the cast aluminum top instead of the tin chrome ones. I agree with you on paper filter being better than cotton in dirt. Where can I buy them?

TheEZGZ Nice manx too bro!

[@marktim969]

Where and how Big should I drill holes on butterfly valve?

[@TheEZGZ]

The Weber manual does not specify exactly as it will differ on every engine size and it's volumetric efficiency. I used a fractional drill bit set and started very tiny. No Change. Then went to the next size up in my index and that was just a little to big. I almost couldn't control the idle. It's very important to follow the Weber tuning procedure. You not supposed to turn that throttle stop adjusting screw more than 1/2 Turn in. Your making the new hole to add air and your turning the idle needle valve to obtain idle speed. If your using a intake manifold with a cross over hole it makes everything even harder to tune. If you don't have enough heat in your manifold and you get frost at the base of your carb when cruising then any fine tuning is a waste of time. It will still run at high speed in warm weather but get horrible gas mileage since you have to compensate with such a rich mixture on the mains. Good Luck with your project and consider purchasing a Weber book. The history part is really interesting and educational. The IDF carb was made to run port on port even though you see them on most off road race cars in the desert heat. However you don't win races idling.

Look forward to that off idle stumble every time you take off from a stop. More lift allows for more breathing at higher RPM your stock carb and stock valve springs will limit you. You will also need to use aftermarket shorter push rods. Unless your willing to dual carbs leave it alone.

Or throw out the float bowls, jets, emulsion tubes, accelerator pumps/diaphrams, cold start stumbling, altitude probems..... into the trash and purchase a fuel injection system!! Ha ha ha. Just joking. Making the carb and induction system "work" to your requirements is a satisfying adventure.

Hey, I love you videos, and I've learned so much from you! I know we all dream of the center mounted weber idf on our VW motors, but I was thinking you can appreciate this so I wanted to share with you. This is a 44mm weber idf center mounted on a 1600, now it's not stock, 12.35:1 compression, fat performance FC19 cam, .30 off set ground crank for true 1600 displacement, single heavy duty valve springs, stock heads & valves with stock ratio rockers all balanced with a lightened flywheel running on 114 race gas but you get the idea... Head over to my youtube page and watch the first and second video I have up on there.
