CorollaNut68 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 Silent is good...makes no sense to alert every cop around that your foot is on the floor. A light window tint will help keep your interior from fading due to all the camera flashes. Quote
rke_011 Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Posted August 19, 2015 Decisions... Think ill stick with the ssr mk2 which means the cheviot wheels will be for sale soon Quote
rke_011 Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Posted October 20, 2015 so its back on the road running draw through setup for now, until I build 5K and get everything I need for EFI. However it idles at around 2k.. Does anyone know anything about zenith Stromberg 175 CD things? I have read that they have a temperature compensator and a bypass valve which can cause similar issues to this, anyone know of an easy way to test this? I don't believe there are any VAC leaks, so I'm thinking its more something in carby... Cheers. Quote
danielmiller30 Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Love reading this, keep up the good work! How long since the carby has been rebuilt? I rebuilt my Escorts carb and made a world of difference Quote
rke_011 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Report Posted October 21, 2015 Honestly.. god knows :) seems to run fine, its just the idle.. So unsure if its an adjustment somewhere? Really can't wait for efi boost... it this little setup goes as well as it does I can't wait for a few more cc's, efi and more boost Quote
danielmiller30 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 Should be an air/fuel ratio screw on the side of the carb which adjusts the idle. Screw it in and out to adjust it or adjust the tension of the throttle cable. Plenty of videos on youtube for that sort of stuff! its easy to located too, its a flat head screw thats spring loaded :thumbsup: Quote
rke_011 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Report Posted October 21, 2015 Don't think this carby works like that... Unfortunately.. Will keep playing with it... Still driveable but just annoying Quote
