I have a 1985 k1500 I don't know the carb I have on it its a 305 and I am getting bad mpg and I never did before but I can smell the gas when I decelerate and it started to sputter when I'm braking and when I turn it on it blows black smoke what do you think this could be

Scotty Kilmer, good vid but you left out how to check vacuum to and adjust if needed, the primary and secondary choke pull offs as well as the fine tune adjustment of the choke mechanism and choke step down idle speeds.

ThisISETHANBRADBERRY! New cars will never give the same feel as the originals. Dodge is bringing back the barracudas in 2020, but if you look at the assumed photos, it's nothing like the cars that cruised with style through the 70s and 80s.
@PorcelainShrine

Heh, I remember doing this back in auto school and it was actually kinda fun and educational. The instructor had the engine plugged into a smog machine to read the gasses coming out and we had to adjust the carburetor so that the exhaust reach at or below state exhaust requirements.

Loved your video. Just bought a 66 mustang and I'm feeling it is time to tune the carb. Maybe even upgrade. I bought it about a week ago and I'm just getting started. I plan on getting a longer cam, headers, better hood with a scoop, and much more, including some major cosmetics. I hope by the end of the year, I will have a maroon and black pony with a mean engine to walk the walk. But I am glad I found your video to give me the official start to the restoration of my baddest dreams. God bless buddy. Give that stingray everything it wants. Lots of road and serious torque to leave its signature.

@Gerberbaby922
@Gerberbaby922 9 лет назад
mclaine33 Do you also wish modern cars had worse fuel economy, didn't last as long, could be affected by small changes in fuel makeup, required more maintenance, and so on? I think its a fair trade off.
@mclaine33
@mclaine33 9 лет назад
Gerberbaby922 Yeah fuel economy sucked but gas was very cheap. It isn't good for the environment though. Didn't last as long? Idk what you're talking about. I feel like many older cars were better build than todays cheapo junk parts that fall off or break (like bumpers made of plastic). More maintenance, yes sometimes, depending how often you drove. Overall it would be nice if cars today can be built just as well as older cars were. A really great example that I can say would be the Tesla Model S. That thing is very well engineered and I'm sure in the future that will become a "collectible or classic" too.

@STARDRIVE 9 лет назад
Gerberbaby922 What about SEFI & EEC, but pre OBD? Gotta 5.0 Windsor ('86 Colony Park) which uses half the fuel compared to my old '63 Impala: 283 with Edelbrock AFB. Not entirely fair, since the Merc has a 4 spd with lock-up, but I feel the improvements in maintenance aren't that big anymore between a 1986 panther and a 2012 one, and according to the EPA their carbon footprint is equal... The best of both worlds perhaps?

@jordanwiley4582

Really helps to use a vacuum gauge. Get it idling as low as it will without jerking around, plug the gauge into a fitting on the intake (manifold vacuum), then adjust mixture screws .5 turn outwards at a time for each (.5 on left, .5 on right, left, right, etc) until highest vacuum reading, and then adjust idle to 700-800rpm in park. Too high of idle and the car will slam into gear. Anymore than 900rpm and most older carbureted cars with their stock 1100-1500 stall converters will start to engage. Thats why it goes into gear really hard. Manual cars idle speed can be a bit higher or lower, measured in neutral, parkng brake set and wheels chocked. Find what your engine likes.

also most factory carbs only let you adjust the idle mixture, idle speed, and choke.
@no-damn-alias
@no-damn-alias 6 лет назад
well that's pretty easy. Mainly you have 3 jets on a carb and in general you can say. One is for idle, the middle one is for normal driving and the main one the big one is for full throttle. What you need is time and various jets at hand. At first of course let the car warm up, and for the idler jet you simply let the car idle for a certain period and then check the colour of the sparkplug For the middle jet, you go on the freeway and drive it for about 1 hour with about 50% throttle. Now you can go by the colour of the sparkplug if you want clean emissions and low fuel consumption or you make several runs with different jets and find out when it got the highest speed. The same should be done for the maine jet although a richer mixture is preferable

A great video, Scotty, I have a question, I am about to buy a buick with a 455 engine with an edlebrock and and at cold start it is has a hunting idle, also when you hit the gas it does not pick up well, seems like it is out of power. This information might be a little general but do you have any idea what might be the problem? It it just a matter of tuning the carb or is it a more serious problem? What might be the steps to undertake? Greetings from Holland

Hi Scotty! Me again. I have a small issue with my 2001 Ford Falcon. Basically without going into too much detail, i was changing a faulty relay and had to move the WAC relay along with the horn relay to replace the horn relay. To my confusion, i mixed both relays (one being the faulty one and the other the original WAC relay) my question is what does the WAC relay do and how can i tell if its working or not. Thank you.

I have a 1978 Ford F-250 straight 6 motor. It starts up and idols fine and runs good sometimes then sometimes while I’m driving it turns off while my foot is on the gas . Then starts right back up most times when I crank it . Sometimes it takes 10 mins to start back up . It has a new carburetor new fuel pump new fuel filter new air filter . It turns off when I’m in 3rd most of the time . I don’t know if my carburetor is tuned correctly so just wondering if that could cause it ?

Hi Scotty. I have a 2004 Camry with what's to believe a clogged Catalytic converter. I thought it was my compressor but someone said the low humming sound was coming from the center near the down pipe instead of the belt side. I'm guessing the engine is barely breathing at this point. A month or two ago I had a check engine light come for my O2 sensor before the cat. I've seen the videos on cleaning the with detergent and lacquer but I purchased something from autozone supposedly cleaning the cat and sensors. But it's still humming. Also once I first crank everyday after hours of sitting a puff of white smoke comes out and gas mileage isn't the same. What are my options. I'm sure I need to replace my sensor. Do I replace it now or wait until I fix the cat issue. I've heard I have a great car and hopefully I can save it. Thanks Scotty for everything

New to the car thing, i swapped a 2bbl Rochester carb with a 4bbl edelbrock. Swapped the intake as well. Before with the old carb on acceleration it would pop or sound like someones sneezin then die. Now with the new carb the rpms skyrocket and it wont idle not to mention the fire/fireball that is fairly common occurrence. Any ideas?

@999thenewman
@999thenewman 9 лет назад
And remember, since at least 1982 automakers such as GM went mostly to computer-controlled carbs with mapped ignition timing. You can only adjust the idle speed on most OEM computer carbs. For better performance, people had to change the intake manifold, fuel jetting and sometimes the PCM. Because of growing fuel economy and emissions standards, engine performance was sacrificed majorly from 1973-1987. Of course, the old school performance aftermarket exists for those yearning for simplicity. Replace and burn rubber.

The manual says "use 87 octane or higher" so im using 87, but last year i went to Mexico and i got 91 gas (my gas tank was at 15% aprox and i fill it up with 91) and it seem to me that my mpg was much better with that gas, should i give 91 another try ???

I have an 82 Ford Fairmont straight 6 3.3. This past week been trying to find out why my car does not stay running while idle. Dies about 10 seconds after starting. Replaced plugs, wires, the coil, and the choke thermostat. When I replaced the plugs and wires a month ago, it was running great, then last week, it happened. I was told to find the idle mixture screw. No such luck on finding it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just bought a mint 1989 Honda Accord LX that has an idle issue. Vacuum lines are all good. My next step is tuning the Carb. Could you give me some pointers?

Wow Actually I am from Sri Lanka and have a old Mitsubishi Lancer. Tried from many garages but no one can fix it for better tuning. But with your video I got my maximum level of fuel consumption. Thanks so much. Also if you have the chance do a video for ajusting Dialpham to have minimum sound from engine and also for maximum plug distribution. Again thank you very much 😈😎

Are there two air screws because it's a two barrel carburetor? My Carter YF on a 300ci-6 is a 1bbl and has one screw.
