tuning a carb

Welcome on the board. Tune-up parts and technique suggestions in this thread. Carburetor operation and repair manuals and links to training movies and carb repair/modification threads are posted here for free download. The engine will require periodic valve adjustment. And depending on your level of skill and experience working with old cars in general and your car in particular, you will want at least one (and probably all three) of the books described in this thread.
