Venturi wiggling... (archive)

If I were you I'd worry more about the loose venturis. If the boost venturis are off just a little bit, the passages won't line up and your mixture will be hosed. On my 45's the venturis are secured by set screws. Need to make sure they're still there and loose. Once I lost two screws; didn't notice it for a while, but eventually I was running on 2 cylinders.

Generally, float settings and jetting won't cause variations day-to-day. If something is OK one day, then not right the next, look for a problem with something being loose, or a vacuum leak.

Well at this weekend comming outta the slalom I got it up on two wheels... WAHOOO!!!! Gotta say my heart was racin but it was a blast. Need some help with tuning weber dcoe 40's. Yesterday it was haulin ass. Scooting around like a bat outta hell. Today it was runnin off.. Stumbling all the way through first gear. Like it was loading up or something. Shift to second and it would crawl till about 3k and then rev through 7k strong. I did notice the venturi's were wiggling themselves foward but got them held in. Didn't make much of a difference. Any Ideas what would cause stumbling only in first gear? Thanks

(God two wheels is a rush) Party On!!
