Weber DCOE and MJ Tuning
Turbo Mini Forums

Hey guys!

Finally got the car running (sort of) today and I think it needs a proper tune up - seems to be running really lean and won't idle properly and back fires through the carb (sometimes I get smoke from one of the sides.

Do you guys know of anyone who is really good for tuning webers and also for mapping MJ in the South West? I am based in Royal Wootton Bassett (Basically Swindon)

Cheers :)

Edit: I think I pressed the poll by accident sorry!

Don't know anyone down there, but have you got the mixture screws adjusted correctly. If your weber has the air bypass circuit (white plastic covers on the adjusting screws), You need to turn 'em out four and half turns (starting point) instead of the two and half turns of the earlier dcoe's (no air bypass circuit).

let me get a picture for you my friend, this is the first weber I have owned and I am new to carbs anyway :)

Before I re-build it:


After:


There is only springs underneath the idle mixture screws

Would Neil Slark not be the man to see? Must do webbers for the race cars and I know he does MJ

Yeah I went and saw neil for the turbo - I don't know if he does webbers or not though

No thats a earlier weber without the bypass circuit. Just watched your vids on That other forum and it sounds like it's running on 3. Check and adjust your tappets, if you've got a spark on all four plugs.

Okay I will do, I know I was getting a spark at the ht lead end on all leads but haven't checked the plugs. Will adjust the rockers again just to be sure :)

neil does webbers, he did mine.

Epic what spec do you have did it take more than a day??
