The guy at the carby shop was saying that because both of the vent things open at the same time at the bottom, and not one opening 3/4 way then the other one starting to open. I think he said its not a dmv carby? or something of the sorts

 

38DGMS 003232

 

found those numbers on either side

 

I'm sure it would be a wicked carb for someone with more time and money, did wonders to my 4k. Had it on for a night, with a makeshift throttle cable mount, which unbeknown to me only allowed me to get the throttle about 50% open if that, so i wasn't able to flood it or anything, made the 4k noticeable faster and torque'er, weather that be placebo effect on my behalf I'm unsure. But once i made a mount for the throttle cable, allowing me to flatten the thing, it was undriveable, stuttering everywhere.

 

my 4k is stocko as a rocko, 115 XXX kms

LOL. 38dgms, now that explains everything.

 

I guess you got the 32/32 from the venturi sizes...

 

Edit/Update your for sale thread.

 

As rollapv75 said, check out Euro cars (Alfas/Fiats) with engine capacities up to 1600cc for a suitably sized weber. A 32/36 DGV is really to big for a little 4k, as they are designed for 1.8 to 2.0L motors. Sure some people get the 32/36 DGV's running reasonably on a 4k, but you will get MUCH better results with a more appropriatelly sized carb, ie. better drivabiliy, throttle response, torque and fuel economy.

:P, yeah i was just told it was a 32/32 when i bought it, figured something was up when i got it home and tried to get it working, at least not i know what to look for eh >.>, whats the 38DGMS actually mean....from what i managed to gather the DGMS and DGV carb have different methods of opening the vents at the bottom

hello i have a weber 32/32 DGV on my 4k-u engine and it works pretty good! the jets are:

 

first butterfly: main jet=120 second butterfly:main jet=130

air jet =190 air jet =160

idle jet=60 idle jet=50

emulsion tube=F66 emulsion tube=F50

 

 

 

it works fine and it passes the emmission test....
