quick ID weber 32/36 photos

[jtorresmorrow]

After fixing my vacuum leaks. I have realized that my jetting on my weber 32/36 may not be set up for headers. I looked at the diagrams, but they're a little too blown-up (rather, blown-apart) for me to feel too confident about. So I have posted some numbered photos. I am assuming:

1. Primary Jet #1
2. Primary jet #2
3. ???? what is this thing
4. idle jet is somewhere under this diaphragm
5. or is it under here?

Btw sorry for the HUGE photos, and Thanks in advance for any info!

1 & 2 cover your idle jets.

3 - no idea

4 - is your accelerator pump, no jet located behind it.

5 - no idea


To get to your main and air corrector jets you will have to take the top portion of the carb off to access the float bowl.

I'm running a '73 F.5 bored .40 over and 6 into 1 header with a 32/36 Weber. I ordered a high altitude jetting kit from Redline (701 DGV6) and here are the #'s I ended up running. I live at 4000' but regularly drive to sea level and 4 wheel up to 10,000'.

The pictures show 2 of the jets you'll need to play with, but you'll also need to adjust/swap the main jets (in the bowl) and the air corrector jets that are between the bowl and venturis. You'll have to remove the choke lever (small C clip) and the top plate of the carb (6 or 8 screws, can't remember). I suggest ordering a rebuild kit at the same time.

The Idle Jets (pictures 1 and 2) are broken up into Primary (engine side) and Secondary (steering column side). Pic #1 is the Secondary Idle Jet, #2 the Primary Idle Jet. All the jets are referred to in the same manner.

I ended up running a 90 Primary Idle Jet, 70 Secondary Idle Jet; Air Corrector Jets 150 Primary, 170 Secondary; and Main Jets of 140 Primary, 175 Secondary.

I made a chart listing all of the jets and tried to only make one jet change at a time. On each chart I kept notes on how well the engine performed at low speed, high rpm, lugging etc. I drove the same course each time that involved highway, hills etc. You'll start to see trends after awhile, and see how changes affect each other.
