weber carb (1 Viewer)

[sullyfj40]

I just bought a 85 fj60, it has a weber carb on it. The po installed it and I'm not sure what he did. Is there a place I could take it down by Joliet, that would be able to work on it. Thanks

Webers are very sensitive to fuel pressure. Does it have a fuel pressure regulator on it?

X2 on the fuel regulator! I run mine at 4 psi and haven't had a problem. You can pick on up from vatoZone or O'Reamly's for a cheap price. Once you get the regulator, set up the carb to Weber specs. Go here REDLINE - Serving the U.S., Canada, Central and South America for over 30 years and under Tech Resources it'll tell you how to set up the weber. There's only 2 adjustment screws on them so it's rather easy to do yourself with just a flat screw driver.

Thanks for the replies. I don't know if it has a fuel regulator
It is pretty messed up, he has golf tees plugging up vacuum hoses. I think it is out if my league to try and fix it. I would be interested in the guys name over in New Lenox. Thanks

Vehicles made prior to 1995 are not smog checked in Illinois. Check the De-Smog thread in the 60 series section and de-smog the truck. It'll get rid of those pesky vacuum lines and pollution control devices. We almost did that to Patrick's 60 series today.

I went over to standon auto in new lenox. They are very helpful over there. Thanks for the info.
