  • I got an old "color tuner" that i used on my old harley that pretty much works with the same principle, looking at fuel mixture. but can be a PITA trying to look at it, it basically replaces a plug with a see thru plug run the motor and dial in the mixture till you get a nice blue flame.

    anybody got any more info on the jet setup on the weber?

      • Bought an adapter not too long ago from Matt, and it's a beaut. Perfectly finished with clear instructions. The only other things you need to get it swapped is a sheet of decent gasket material a warm weekend under a shady tree

        • Is a wide band O2 the oxygen sensor? or an O2 ratio tailpipe sniffer?
          The oxygen sensor and the computer are both unecessary and can be removed if you switch to a non-feedback carb.
          You can leave it there for an emissions check or just put a drain plug in its place.

            Wideband is a type of oxygen sensor system that tells the exact AFR in realtime which is useful for tuning purposes.

            • interested in this for my 89 carbd. thinking of getting either a reman escort carb or a new weber 32/36. im assuming this adapter is for the latter?

              • ^This adapter is for the Weber 32/26, and the Escort carb is not the same pattern.

                • ok thank you sir.

                  • Yes, these fit the 32/36.

                    I should be able to drill them out for the Escort flange though, if you're interested.

                          • Looking good as always. If I still had my carbed festiva I would buy one of these looks much nicer than my home made 1/4 inch plate with role cage tubing lol it did work nicely.

                              • I have one with an Escort carb on it and I love it! Replaced my 32/36. I've had both now and IMO, the Escort carb is far superior. Might be selling this Weber soon! Rocketman makes a fine product!
