Hard Cold and warm start

['76mintgrün'02]

You're quite welcome.  I wish more people would post photos like yours.  It makes it so much easier to help and way more fun too.

 

To close the flaps (when it is cold), you loosen those three screws and rotate the body/hoses clockwise. 

 

Then, once it is warmed up again, check to see that they are vertical.

Tom,

I’ll try doing that. Hope it closes when I floor the gas pedal. If it doesn’t then I will turn the choke assembly clockwise to close.

What’s the purpose of the screw just underneath the carb?

Look at pictures

That is your fast (cold) idle adjustment screw. That screw is my pet peeve, it's always very difficult for me to find a suitable screw driver to reach it properly, specially when the air cleaner is still in place.

 

Good luck.

Tom,

I always wonder what’s the purpose of that screw. Now I know. Thanks 

 

Mike, 

 I will follow your instructions in setting up the carb properly.

By the way I have the Weber 32/36 on my 76 ‘02.

Thanks

Randy

Hello Eric,

I apologize for not thanking you for telling me the purpose of that screw. I thought it was Tom. I am very sorry.

Thanks

Randy
