Weber 32/36

Ok i am just after a little info on this topic.

 

I am picking up a weber 32/36 for my ke70 from a mate of mine for $30 before u say whats wrong with it absolutley nothing wrong with it he just needs to piss it off.

 

now my question iswhat the frig do you do about the hose in the top of the tappet cover that goes to the standard air filter where the frig do u hook it up to serious i need an idea.

 

i am thinking of just getting it professionally fitted to save me the stuff assing about with the thing is anybody else here from toowoomba and know of a decent place that won't try and rip me off!!

 

i can get the adapter plates and air filter kits through injectacarb here in toowoomba then its just a matter of fittin the bastard to the car.

 

reason for this is simple i have fitted 2 inch hurricane extractors and a 2 inch stright through with a super cat resonator and lukey hiflow exhaust and now i have no acceleration in 1st gear the mixer is set so low that the car is on fumes literally cause if i take it past 1.5 turns from all the way in the bastard floods and stalls like a bitch.

 

plus the other annoyance of the bloody thing revs having to be up past 1000 in drive to stop it from stalling at the lights i have looked at every possible thing it could be and all i can put it down to is the POS AISAN CARBY so weber it is cause i gettin it cheap!

Members dont see this ad

oooh an auto!! (edit...after re-reading I have no idea how I came to this conclusion....I just woke up allright!!!)

 

When you fit the weber you might have some issues fitting the kickdown lever...You don't HAVE to but when you put your foot down your gonna have to shift it down manually...

 

With the crank case breather you can either hook it into the weber air filter (most aftermarket filters have a hole for it to hook into) or you can pipe it into a catch can (which is my perfered option).

 

I bet it sounds awesome with the lukey system!! viva la lukey!

 

oh and there aint nothing wrong with a $30 32/36 weber!! if it was a $30 pair of DCOE webers id start to wonder whats wrong...

The breather isnt Ideal by itself...but I know of many people that do use it by itself...

I'm thinking of making mine go into an oil catch can rather than the air cleaner because it just dawned on me today that I have burnt 3 litres of oil in 3 months !

 

Running a catch can isn't going to lessen or stop the amount of oil you're burning. All the catch can will do is store the gunk that comes out the vent, instead of putting it down the carby. This achieves 2 things (that I can think of anyway):

 

- your carby doesn't get covered in oil

- your octane levels in the fuel going into your engine stay more constant since you don't have oily gunk contaminating your AFR.

 

And in case you're thinking of pouring back the stuff in your catch can into your engine, I personally wouldn't. Have you seen the stuff that gets caught in there? It's really rather yucky, and has little resemblance to engine oil...

in my catch can i get very little oil. mainly a little grotty water. moreso after a lot of rain.

 

i have drilled out the PCV valve and run the hose to my catch can (an old 1liter thinners tin with a foam filter around the top). the other line from the rocker cover goes into the base of the ramflo air filter.

 

i now am running an O2 sensor and a DSE Fuel Mixture Display unit. made setting up my 32/32 DGV a breeze. you can see what is actually happening with the mixtures, rather than guessing what your jetting should be. now has better response and drivability than quite a few EFI cars i've been in down low.

 

the DGV carb rebuild kit i bought about a month ago cost $40. it was a basic Fuel Miser kit, and had no power valve actuator, which i had to buy afterwards. it had a pinhole in the diaphram.

 

nick, maybe a bit of your fuel smoke under heavy acceleration is a bit of oil. done a compression test recently?

yeh the lukey does sound pretty awesome!

 

lets just say it sounds like a stocko falcon when you start it and it sounds like its got a nice big 6 under it instaed of a four :P :P

 

The extractors and exhaust system all up cost $550 and gave me a 45% increase in power overall and killed first gear as there is now 0 backpressure it has a much better top speed now though.

 

But that is as i explained the fault of the pos aisan carb and is why i am getting the weber also thought to ask what the hell do i do with the anti polluion crap that is mounted on the front of the stock air filter.

Well I Now Have Me A 32/36 DGAV off of a 2 litre Ford Escort.

 

I Am going to pay InjectaCarb Toowoomba to do a complete rebuild and rejetting of the carby as it has no jets no emulsifiers and no butterflys for the choke at the moment not that i care i knew it would need a rebuild anyway.

 

But as the carby is missing quite a few bits Thank god injectacarb can source them for me after the carb is done it will be like a brand spanking newie.

 

And for the fitting of it i getting them to do that to and they got air filter kits for them starting at $55 YAY

 

The Rebuild Kit Is Costing me $62 on its own that all the seals and stuff like that.
