You need 4.5 psi of fuel pressure to run with webers. Check the air needle if they are too open or too close, and check the mixture screw to be sure they are not too close. I have a '72 911 with webers. I can remember exactly the setting, but I think that the air needles are setting 5 complete turns from close to open position. And set initially the mixture screw setting for 2 complete turns from close to open position. Then check to open a little 1/4 turn or close 1/4 turn. You will need to get the higher rpm of the engine doing that to each cylinder. Then try to synchonize the carbs. This settings may be dont work exactly that I said to you because you live is Massachusetts and I live in the Caribbean and the temperature, level sea and humidity are differents, but try it.
