sounds to me like it may be a vacuum leak. raise the rpm just to get it to idle so that you can find where the leak is by spraying some carb cleaner.

Doesn't the shutter valve control the rpm's when they come down? I had a similar problem & thought it was a vaccuum leak. Couldn't find a vaccuum leak.. replaced the shutter valve & fixed the problem.

Good tip. I'll bet that's not in the Weber manual.

ok wheres the shutter valve located? i looked for vaccum leaks all day yesterday and didnt fiand anything, went through lik 3 cans of choke cleaner lol

Would a Weber setup even still have a shutter valve?

Wouldn't it have gone away with the manifold swap?

jd89

thats what i thought i just looked everywhere for it and couldnt find it

jd89

i think i might have a fuel pump problem

ok so heres the deal theres a valve on the intake side of the carb, if i hold it in the middle it will idle but idle high, and it runs like total **** if i drive when its open
