Trouble with a new Thermoquad Installation
Glad you figured it out. I also appreciate that you put forth the effort to make the Thermo-quad perform correctly. THE most common problem with a Themo-qaud is the guy working on it (which all too many times has been me). Once you learn how to make them perform you will love them. For a street motor I prefer them over Holleys.
Very tue. While there not easy like a Holley to set up when there all out of wack, ya know there, well, a bit finicky to work on and get used to, once set up and correctly tweaked, there really a surprising carb and quite livable in many applications. I had a few fits when I first got one. The wrench turner was himself a loose nut. (ME!) and once I got it where it was supposed to be. I was quite happy with it.
There very solid. Jet it, set it, forget it carb. Just keep the heat away from them and give it time to warm up right. They won't letcha down and fall out of tune and get stupid on ya.
I love running them and then opening the hood to the looser of the race. Watching his face ethier drop or get confused with comments like;
"WTF is THAT!!!!!????" / "Who makes that?" Or "Is that a stock carb?"
Ans... It's an alien device designed on the outter rim of the galaxy. It was a gift in trade for a few cows."
Right now I'm running a 9800 TQ w/electric choke/GM replacement model on my 400 Magnum.
