Jetting question, Plaese help. 1.8l type 4
Please help me with getting the right jets:
I am running dual weber 40 IDFs. They came with the following jets/setup: air correction 2.00, Emulsion tube F-11, main jet 1.15, pump jet 0.50, idle jet 0.50, venturii 28mm We ran the engine for a few minutes yesterday, but it got quite hot and sounded like it was running with too much air (popping).... The engine spec is: 1.8l type 4 93MM Pistons (Porsche 914, domed to increase compression) 66mm stroke crank 308 degree webcam, (valve lift: 0.507, duration at 0.050: 272 degrees, Grind no. 86c) polished + mildly ported type 4 heads Stock rockers Bosch 009 Distributor (Standard points) THe car is a full weight 1972 Beetle running a 1500 gearbox. Can anyone help me get the right Jets? |
Change and try or reserve dyno time...
Your popping is more likely an intake (vacuum) leak and your cam seems very very wild for that engine, which could result in a very bad mixture from idle to mid-revs and subsequent bad burn, meaning too lean a burn, resulting in excessive heat... Maybe a slightly bigger idle jet (52?), bit smaller air correction (190). Test and try...or get a wide band CO metering device (aircooled.net). Greetings, Walter |
