THE Book

(1/2) > >>

Adam:
I've noticed my vette likes to pop when I engine brake which suggests unburned fuel entering the exaghst. Looking down the barrels into my carby I see everytime the accelerator is pushed it squirts a lot in one barrel and just trickles in the other. I'm inclined to think theres too much fuel goin in in one and not enuff in the other.

My question is why, and what can i do? Is it clogged or can I adjust it? is it idle mixture?

It's a Rochester carby.

thanks,

Adam

rebel:
sounds like it might just be in need of a good overhaul ....

Adam:
I'm pretty sure I can do an overhaul, dunno if it would be any good tho...

Brutus:
I have THE book if that's any help at all.

Adam:
Now I'm at a crossroads...
To rebuild?
To exchange?
To get a Holley?
To convert to gas?
