Thisty Carb?
« on: January 27, 2010, 05:27:20 am »

Thought I'd start a new thread because the Greg's Bus one is getting old ha ha.

So they only way to start my car is to dump a lot of fuel into the carb, doesn't matter what temperature it is you still have give it a lot of pumps to get it to turn over. A part of me wants to check to see if the bowl is filling up properly, I wonder if it could be leaking. I'm tempted to turn that tiny screw that Jack and Muir both tell me not to.  I1t

You buy your own bus, and do what you want to your bus. I'll do what I want to so with mine. Pissing off purists one modification at at time.

the muir manual actually has a nice little write up on how to tune the carb yourself. Maybe you should read it and go through the steps  s#r
