rhys2229 Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 Hi i've tried to search for some answers but couldnt find it, i just put a 32/36 weber dgav on my 4k ke70 and it doesnt want to start, i've blocked off the emission hoses and attached what i thought is the dizzy vacuum advance. i've got the fuel connected and the engines turning over but it wont start, its almost there if i fiddle with the accelerator and choke flap. Also i havnt connected the accelerator cable to the carby yet, how do you do it? heres somes pics Quote
anastasios Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 (edited) you need a bracket mate, i have a similar holley carb, i could get a pic if you wanted, or you could come take a look at it and make a copy Edited March 20, 2010 by anastasios Quote
tioklou Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 Hello Anastasie... look how i install the weber in my car..it's so easy a job with the accelerator cable. i use the 4k stock carby things as you see and a bracket plate in valve cover... mine start pretty easy but the carb had been cleaned and had new gasket set...is the carby cleaned? if it has a blocked hole maybe this is the reason...

tioklou Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 and of course you need a friend of yours to turn the key when you are in front of the engine to accelarate by hand and ajust the mixture and idle screw...because only you it's a little bit difficult.. Quote
rhys2229 Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Posted March 20, 2010 yeh my mum was starting while i revd it lol, how did you attach the accelerator cable braket to the rocker cover? Quote
tioklou Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 look at my second post with the 2 pictures...look at the first one of the two... i take a piece οiron plate and fix the bracket...look at this..it takes me 10 minutes to do that..drill 2 hoses to bolt the plate on the valve cover..the valve cover has 2 holes... Quote
tioklou Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 remove this bolt that holds this bracket(red arrow) and you will see 2 holes in this place you will screw the iron plate... in my car down of the carby adapter plate i keep the stock carby plate,in order to connect the pipe(blue arrow)...the stock plate also protects the carby bole from temperature...

tioklou Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 good job mate..only check if with pedal down opens and the second butterfly to it's end... I got the pcv breather from a car parts store in Greece (the country i am from)..."the other hose thats ment to go into the carby?" you mean the hose that hold i in your hand and you T it? i don't know but i would block it and use only one hose from the distributor to weber... And about the whistling noise...i think is the weber sound...i hear the same sound.... :-) Quote
tioklou Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 maybe the other hose that you T it is for the economy gauge..ke70 i see that have this...mine is ke30... Quote
rhys2229 Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Posted March 21, 2010 maybe the other hose that you T it is for the economy gauge..ke70 i see that have this...mine is ke30... the hose i'm holding in my hand is the vac advance and the fuel canister thingy that i t'd into, not sure if i'm ment to do that. the hose i ment is the 2nd one of the rocker cover that connects into that spacer on the original carby Quote
tioklou Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 you can do two things for this.... 1)first of all to use a second breath filter 2)to do what i did...i keep the original carb plate in it's place(connect the pipe of the valve cover) and above that put the weber adapter plate..i use larger studs. i also opened the original carby plate to oval shape as the weber adapter plate..the same thing i did and to my inlet manifold for better breath of the weber.
