thearbear1990 · 03-20-2012, 02:20 PM

just had a couple of questions for you guys on here. 1. I cant seem to find the a/f screws to ajust them. 2. well should I ajust the a/f screws before I do a carb sync?? Thanks guys

A/f screws will have a plug over them if they have never been messed with. Located on bottomthe of carbs. Set at 2.5 turns out.

2. yes, set AF first, sync after

thearbear1990 · 03-20-2012, 10:47 PM

thank you!!!! well I set the a/f and it has way better respons but still bogs at 3-5 thousend rpms. Is that a carbs sync prob or a vac prob? I think I have water getting into the engine becouse, I have white smoke off the headers after it gets worm. so would that be the couse of the sputer or a carb sync?? otherwise I got it to idle good and the high ranf rpm is good.

Well, a sync problem IS a vacuum problem. I wouldn't try to diagnose ANYTHING until you do that.
