Markus56 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I just installed my new weber on my '85 wagon and it's not running right. When i start it, it will rev up to 2500 rpm and then die in about 5 seconds. what did i do wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 do you have a return spring on the throttle? if you swapped on the soob throttle bracket, you could have pulled it too tight and moved the shaft.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus56 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) there is a return spring and the throttle moves freely is there a really good write up on the process? these are the ones i found but didn't help http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=74206 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49931 this one would have, but i cant see the pictures Edited July 24, 2009 by Markus56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchsub Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 If you play with the gas will it stay running? Honestly something sounds more out of wack then just throttle linkage. Have you also checked for vacuum leaks? My check list would be: Choke...adjusted? Vacuum leaks Something plugged up inside the carb Without knowing more thats all i got for you.

Markus56 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 one eye is headed over sometime today, so hopefully he can get this figured out. There shouldn't be anything wrong with it, it was professionally rebuilt by a carburetor guru. It might be something as silly as a vacuum hose not plugged.
