Changing Carbs on an 88

[yogaslackers]

will this bolt up to a b6?

I have always used the carb for the '81 to '85 Escort 1.6L. I've never used one on a B3, but they work perfect right out of the box for the B6. You can usually find a new/rebuilt one on eBay for around $75.00.

This bolts up with no modifications?

What intake do you use, for a carbed engine?

The Carb off my b3 is causing the engine to race 3800 rmps any Ideas on how to tune a b3 carb?

thanks

the reason your car isn't running properly is because you tried to hybrid a second gen B6 head with a B3 intake and exhaust. this can only be properly done by using a FIRST gen B6 head.

In case anybody wanted to know

My jets:

Idle Jets
primary=.050
secondary=.055

Main Jets
primary=.140
secondary=.145

Air Correction Jets
primary=.165
secondary=.175

Tried a .115 on primary main = bogged down, went back to .140
Gonna try .125/.130 to see how that does. Trying to get best mileage and performance

Zoe60............could you post a pic of your installation? Thanks

I have also been searching for a "step by step" R&R of the OE carb mess and replacement with the DGEV & Rocketman adapter? Ive yet to find one. It seems daunting as there is so much STUFF associated with the so called feedback carb on my 89.
