Post by: MaD.72 on July 22, 2008, 12:24:10 PM

We have a 87 sammi who we decide to bring back to life!!!!

The problem is with the carb i have a couple of one here, and i decide to built one ....

First question is....what is the best number(size) for my primary and my secondary main jet, that i should use????

Second question is..... what is the primary setting for the mixture adjusting screw???


BTW im around 500 feet from sea level!!!

is this the mixture screw you access by removing a pin that's in the way?
that is "set" and "shouldn't" be monkeyed with without a COmeter.
i don't have a baseline adjustment mentioned in my manual.
count turns so you remember where it was?
i thought of pulling that pin when i overhauled my original carb. just so i could mess with it, but didn't.

The carb is the #1 restriction on these engines. If you live in a state that doesn't have emissions, you may want to consider taking one from another vehicle (up to about 1.8L). There are toyota carbs that are direct bolt-on, and many others can be modified, or adapter purchased.

Come to think of it, i live in Smog Nazzi Callifornia, and I've still considered the swap. As long as the install LOOKS stock, the technicians don't really care / notice.
