    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    It idles fine it is in the tip in I guess you would say. To hold say 40 mph it leans out.

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    Well I am back at it! I had it sorted out last year by putting smaller idle air bleeds in it. Then I went and put a slightly bigger cam in it and the problem is back. I will be putting a vacuum gauge on it this week to see if I need to change the PV. For the curious ones, I put a Comp cams...

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    Well my initial is 16 and total is at 34 with my magnum heads. Tried her out again today. Seems like the lean out moved up a little now it is not right when I five it slight throttle but a little higher around 2500-2800 (in neutral) it is very lean. After 2800 AF ratio drops back down and runs...

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    Thanks, I will check that as well, once again. I have always tuned with total but I realize that the initial might be off.

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    Thanks Michel, I also now have a A/F gauge, which is why I wanted to put the carb back on. I checked the IFR and they are at .032 all around. As I was putting the bowl back on I stripped out a hole so I will have to order some more heli-coils. The transfer slots were closer to a more...

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    I put a more suitable PV in last year when I got it. I will hopefully get to checking out the other issues later in the week.

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    It has 4 corner idle, I am thinking about richening the secondary side to see if that helps also. It's all trial and error for me as I am used to my old trusty TQ that I can't find parts for anymore.

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    If the IFR is too small, do I drill it out? If too big? Are they replaceable? Could it be that they are clogged? I haven't looked at them yet.

    proform race carb / Idle trouble

    Hey this is quiet interesting as I have been reading around my search results for air bleed tuning and low and behold I find a post about the carb I now have!! I have also concluded that the idle air bleeds are way too big! I even tried switching the primary idle air bleeds with the High...

    o2 sensor placement question

    I was asking for one sensor as I do not have the money for a dual system. Thanks for all the quick replies! I will put it on the side with the most room and convenience.

    o2 sensor placement question

    Well I just ordered a AEM wide band and I am wondering where I should place the o2 sensor. I have tti headers with 3" exhaust to the axle, and an air gap intake manifold. Would it be safe to put the o2 sensor in the h-pipe? Or should I just put it on one side just after the collector? thanks

    Thermoquad race tune

    Everything has been said so I will not add my .02. I must say though that I will never give up my TQ again! I have the best luck with it because whenever I try another carb on my 318 the TQ always outperforms it in every aspect. For instance the fuel mileage, when I had a 750 DP on it I was...

    Anyone use one of these?

    I had one on my car to go to the races, untill I started to play around in a tunnel on the way back and the car starved out at about 5000 rpm and you could hear the engine trying to suck the filter through the carb!

    OEM carb question

    Had a non-smog Thermoquad on my 318 that I had rebuilt with an old left over strip kit and it ran great but like one said before it is hard to find parts for it, had to change mine last summer for a edelbrock avs because the needle and seats were worn out on the thermoquad. But when it was...
