i know you guys know the answer to this
ok well i just put in a brand new spakin weber 48ida..
the car idles better.. smoother.. and is so much better to drive in total
one problem
when i press on the throttle.. there is a spot where its hard!
like i have to press on it hard to get pass this spot.. but then the car will get alot of gas.. and make the rev jump suddenly because its not a smooth press..
like the old weber didnt have this problem.. i would press the gas and from top to floor.. its all the same pressure u put on the pedal
the new one has this spot thats hard to press but when u pass that particula spot it its normal again..

ah..maybe the throttle wire is a bit tight huh?
hmm..
actually i was nudging on the actual weber throttle lever.. and i could kinda feel the hard spot too.. or maybe its just my imagination
btw the weber is brand new.. as in bought straight from the shelf and bolted it in...

oil under where the arrows are pointing, take those little covers off and oil the bearings underneath. I just used some 3-1 oil. I am sure any light oil will work.

Man - I currently have the SAME problem. . . But I still have my standard carb on my 12a. I pulled the Air filter off the carb and noticed where the Throttle cable goes into the carb, a bunch of levers and ****, I too just sprayed WD40, and it SEEMS to have made it a little better. . .I still notice a lttle "area" that i have to pass as I depress the throttle - hope all the connections are ok and the cable too. . .

this is wat i followed
taken straight from ausrotary member
"I would suggest the following.
38mm chokes. You might have to get a set machined if you cannot find any.
F2 emulsion tubes
190-200 air jets
180-190 fuel jets
F10-65 idle jets
Alternatively you can use
F11 emulsion tubes
120 air jets
180-190 fuel jets
F11's do seem to be more suited to big ported engines though, and in my experience they do not work as well in normal engines as the F2 emulsion tubes. "
i done the second setting
(F11 emulsion tubes
120 air jets
180-190 fuel jets )
.. but i have 37mm chokes instead of 38mm
