ok so my 40 has been running rich since i bought it. P.O. ripped out emissions system. im in CA and I just got a sticker dont ask how...lol...anyways the main story i need help with is getting it to run without me having to turn the fast ide up basically all the way AS WELL AS having the choke out halfway just to keep the damn thing running at stops when i rpm down.
super annoying. Guy says just get a new carb. So im like okayy i could do that and im happy to do that but because P.O. ripped out emissions system, if I ordered a new '76 carb I'm nervous that I'd have to adjust it to work with my rig - meaning if no emissions systemprese t then all the vacuum lines that go to the carb are non-existent. therefore i just cap them?
i have no idea how my P.O. (or his mechanic) manipulated the carb to work. after studying it (the carb) its a combo of two different years - top part / bottom part - 2 different years (if im correct - i looked on the carb identifier on SOR so im pretty sure im correct).
I also know tons of people rip out their emissions systems so there should be some easy way to deal with a new carb.
i bought a rebuild kit for a '76 carb - took the ****er apart, cleaned the jets added the new seals and whatnot - put it back together - same ****ing problem. so im exhausted by this, I just wanna be able to drive my 40 without tasting gasoline in the nostrils. lol
anyways im thinking smaller jets i dunno, im lost on this and no one around me will help me. ive tried valley hybrids, mudrak. they are the only ones close to me, but i cant get them to even look at it. super annoying. their always "busy" and i cant "get in line" bec their 'workload is too high" ... I just need an assessment and ill do the work myself s***.
do you guys think i should just a new carb or what?
thank you for any assistance or suggestions based on what i said.
