When the engine warms up, the idle rises to 2100rpm. It stays there until coming to a nearly complete stop(~3mph), where it suddenly drops to 900. The car has no cruise or AC and has 62,000 miles. We brought it to our general mechanic, and he can't make heads or tails of it. Has anyone else had this problem before, or a good idea of what causes it? -
Need some Help... The issue I'm having is idle hanging up around 1500. It will lower to normal (900 rpm) if I blip throttle. Getting tired of doing that in traffic. Middle carb is hanging , but only when engine is running. Carbs open and fully shut very smooth when engine off. Vacuum holding plates open?. Maybe it has to do with the balance tube on the cannon manifold. all carbs have been rebuilt. I swapped carb position and problem stays in middle carb. I heard the cannon manifold suck. Does anyone have some helpful info for me? TIA. 20190815_164848.mp4 20190815_164500.mp4 20190815_180041.mp4 -
First off i want to thank everyone that has helped me with my project 240. So it starts!! Now trying to tune and sync the carbs. Having trouble with a super high idle aroung 1300rpm with timing set advanced around 12 degrees, any lower and the car diesels and backfires. the engine revs smooth unless you blip the throttle , in which case it bogs for a sec and climbs. i have not driven it yet(still need work on suspension and brakes). any other guys with webers have any input on this? as far as timing? what dizzy to go with? also, the lights flickers and ammeter goes nuts in car. does not happen all the time, it does smooth out and when it goes crazy, there is a slight squealing noise in engine bay. All and any input is greatly appreciated
