Ideal Spark Plug Gap And Other Stuff.

[anarky]

Hey guys, I have searched your forums and found nothing. I have a 1988 Corolla hatch with a 4a-lc engine. SOHC, 1587?cc.

I have not long finished rebuilding and she splutters a little bit at idle.

 

What should the spark plug gap be?

 

Also, does anybody know how to adjust the fual air mixture on these engines? I understand it may have a Weber DVG seriec carby on it.

 

Cheers.

on the side you will find one screw that controls the minimum amount of throttle i.e. your idel, close by you will see anoth screw which gose into near the base of the carb, it should have a spring wound around it, this is the mixture screw.

 

 

spark plug gap is in the owners manual and or under the bonnet, i forget what its supposed to be.
