Engine Dieseling - Options?
numbers are correct - 220-230ish - I never had an engine with that high of numbers, hoping it means the rings are good LOL
well I got back at the car this weekend, worked on my brakes, even if I could get the car happy running wise they weren't good enough to get out of the driveway with. I started off as I mentioned with my 670, re-jetted, rechecked everything just to be sure no issues from the last time I ran it, even checked the PV, went step by step on the install trying to make sure I paid attention to every detail for the install, even reset the kick down 100% properly, I only thought I set it right the first time, at least it is much closer. So after I get everything installed and start it up, try to kick down off the high idle from the choke - nothing doing - same sh*t as before - DAMN - I know this carb is good - so I do a little checking, I found my culprit, of course he had an installer who is partly to blame
not sure when I set the throttle on the 750 but quite sure I set it up the same way, when I locked the cable down it was with the carb sitting in the choke position, so I basically locked the throttle open to high idle, the transfer slot exposed as a result was a source of the pain and suffering - right now car is at 850ish on idle with 22 degrees initial timing - no dieseling or kickback and no start issues - Go figure - since I have the 750 off I am going to take it apart anyway to recheck everything including the PV, once all checked I will put it back on and see how it does. right now I will be able to hit the streets for the first time since October last year when I started out to check some freeze plugs and strut rod bushings - what a run of crap, may get a better sense of what PV the 750 may like when Im out on the street with the 670, maybe
