I've had this car just a few months...

Out of the box, those carbs had smaller vents & smaller jets. I got the bigger vents and a jet assortment with them too. PO never got to it. He had installed the carbs as purchased, then parked it, then I bought it.

He said he hadn't driven it & I believed him-- ran like crap! Although they looked new, filters and all, I opened them up & they were DIRTY! Floats were all over the place, etc. Still had some hiccups, so I went through them again. A little fiddling & much better now.

They're running well enough I can leave them alone & do other things first. I'll get to CB upgraded Spaniards later.

Kind of a relief as I need $truts

Care to share the rest of your set up? vents? jets? Thanks!

***edit*** oops! I just saw your set up above. DOH! Bookmarked!
