HATCHY Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I just got a Brand New Weber kit for my ea81 I was wondering if the carb is already tuned? Or if I have too tune it what do I do what do I tinker with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Follow the instructions that come with the kit. Take a look at the carb... what were you planning on tuning? Only way to tune a weber is to change the jets..... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrap487 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Follow the instructions that come with the kit. Take a look at the carb... what were you planning on tuning? Only way to tune a weber is to change the jets..... GD I believe there is a way to tune it, but its only one adjustment screw and I've heard MANY people overlook it and/or dont know about it. I'd have to go take a closer look later to be able to tell you. At least there is on the 32/36 DGEV my dad has on his nissan... Theres an odd kinda screw on a side opposite the floatbowl, I think i'll have to take a picture cause I'm having a hard time remembering, working on a hitachi has my mind in a food processor. good luck, I'll get pictures in the morning if you dont figure it out and find you DO need to tune it.

Subarian Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Depending on who you bought the carb from, you may or may not need to tune it. If you bought it specifically for your application from a supplier, like redline weber, it should be jetted correctly. You would need to set up the idle mixture and idle speed, both of which are pretty simple and can be found on redline weber's website: http://www.redlineweber.com/html/Tech/carburetor_set_up_and_lean_best_.htm If you bought the carb secondhand and it was originally jetted for a different vehicle, or if you live at high altitude (like I do) you may need to rejet the carb.
