    A/F plugs off. One stripped!

    I drilled out the plugs over the a/f screws finally and one of the screws is REALLY stripped, to the point of there being two little rounded triangles instead of a thin line for a standard driver. It will not move at all! I fear my only option is to drill it out which I REALLY am not wanting to...

    Carbs: What the heck & A/F Screws stuck

    I picked up these neglected V Max carbs on C/List. They have been sitting a long time so I am in the process of disassembling everything, dipping everything in Berryman's, replacing buggered parts and hopefully make them whole once again. I was reviewing other threads and I see the PO replaced...

At partial throttle cruising around town I am seeing 17-17.2 from just off idle to just before V-boost, regardless of gear...

    stripped a/f screws

    Help: I managed to strip out the a/f mixture screws on both carbs on the right side of my '96. :bang head: I was attempting to do the shotgun and even after using PB blaster ( overnight), heat and tapping on them to no avail. Since I did the shotgun I have gas pouring out of the front left...

    New Cams & A/F mixture

    Howdy Guys. Just installed a new set of cams. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience on what to expect for the A/F mix??? I know I need to take it to the dyno and get it dialed in, I am just wondering what to expect so I know how to tune for the new cams. Cheers

    Borrow A/F meter???

    I was hoping someone might have a A/F meter/setup I can borrow to tune my carbs. The Ex just hit me with a court order to pay some medical stuff for the kids she never told me about and about wiped me out. I would appreciate it if anyone has one. Thanks in advance

    Quad Channel A/F gauge???

    Any one know where I can find a quad channel A/F gauge? Had 4 individual bungs welded into my kerker for tuning each cylinder. I have found plenty of dual channels. Thanks in advance Cheers
