I'm trying to set up my standard carbs for my 260z but I have a problem and need some advice. The carbs have been on and off lots of times and the car runs O.K. when warm but is a pig to start. I set the choke aperature gap as per Haynes, balanced the carbs and set the mixture. It was still poor starting I adjusted how much the throttle is opened by the choke to 0.6mm as per Haynes again because the throttles where virtualy shut. But now the car is still tricky to start and the engine races at 2500rpm with the choke out and is hunting and it is very tricky to work the choke in without stalling the engine. Can someone tell me what the throttle opening should be, it is clearly too wide now. Is there a book on this type of carb? Help please they are driving me daft.
