Is it not possible to adjust the dual carbs' linkage so that the rear
carb's primaries open first
and, then, the front carb's primaries open, so that you can get very
good mileage
by just using the smallest 4-barrels (the two carbs' primaries), before
the larger secondary
throats, on both carbs, open---either progressively, or simultaneously?? Neil Vedder Bjwt56@xxxxxxx wrote: Nick:I have the 57 dual quads you mention on my 56. I plan to change them out when I get the original 56 factory dual quads ready to go.Anyway, I have the slotted linkage that is correct for these carburetors and have it adjusted so that I operate only on the rear carb until I get to highway speeds or decide to romp it a little. To do this, I have left a space of about one half inch on the front carb to keep both front throttle valves closed until I want them. This is not very scientific, but it works and saves me gas. If you want it more precise, decide at what rpm you want the front carb to function, set the throttle to that rpm and adjust the linkage accordingly.John Teske ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options, please go tohttp://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1 <http://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1> ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options, please go to http://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1
