DHLA 45 question.

Hi, I'm trying to improve weak mixture in progression phase.

Do you know if the idle adjustment screw affects the amount of fuel to the progression holes, or only to the idle hole the other side of the butterfly?

I'm hoping it does, 'cos then I could enrich progression with it, and lean the idle out with the air bypass.

But I bet it isn't like that!

Lonely corner of the forum this section. I hope i'm in the right place.

Jon

think you will find you need to fit bigger idle jetsto richen progression then reduce idle mixture strengh on idle screws, hope this helps

Thanks - that is what I'm expecting, but was looking for a free answer
do you know what normal size range would be for idle jets? I'm already on a 58, and that's bigger than Des Hammil recommends for the 2.4!

Jon what engine capacity are you running ?

 

[jonbills]

Steve, I have a standardish 2.4 from 240z.
I think 36mm chokes somewhat explains larger jet sizes than "normal" but it seems quite a big difference.

Heck of a big carb setup for a "standardish" 2.4
