    Finished off front bumper, it really needs another coat as a few bits are a little light. but Meh i love it
    Also adjusted my linkage as i think thats the cause of the high idle.
    And also fitted my sticker on rear window, my car, my mods, so do as the sticker says LOL

    Cheers thanks,

    Got to run here around the block today

    Few issues, mainly tuning the 32/36 weber. anyone have any insight on these?
    Issues are.

    1) hesistation off idle, wont rev much, didnt try to get into secondairies.
    2) lack of power.
    3) Mixture screw has no effect when turned, lead to belive i have got the idle screw too far in so its opened up the progression port... which makes an changes to the mixture screw void.
    4) Noticed the Top gasket ont he carby is wet, no drenched or leaking.. just wet.
    The carb has had a rebuild kit, new needle and seat ect. All been cleaned properly. and everything is either new or cleaned.
    5) im running a Carter rotary pump 4070 i think it is. says 6psi at 70gph... is this too much for the weber and do i need a FPR

    Just want to do things properly

    Other then that, it drives lol

    Forgot to add,

    If i pump the brakes while idle, the revs will go from say 900 up to 1300 intill i stop pumping, but the booster check, checks out fine, rock hard pedal when car off, and pedal goes down softly when i turn car on,... so... hrmm

    At least she drives bro lol. I know that webers dont like too much fuel pressure. With my twins I dont need an aftermarket pump. Or with my old mk1 which had a 32/36. Mind you they are both 1.6 engines and not the 1.8L. Sorry mate not much help haha. Been a while since I played with a 32/36...
