Re: My n/a super b3 build

Yeah I know it's bad. On carb engines it is because the idle jet will still feed fuel if air moves through the carb... So the fix is a idle jet solenoid that closes when you turn off the ignition. Zo I have one on its way plus I'm running ngk plugs and Matt said I need to run platinum and that may help a little with the dieseling because the ngk strap gets so hot they can cause some dieseling

Dieselling is really bad because the engine is spinning backwards; damage may result. You might try octane booster, and use high octane gas.

Looking at a flow master hp2 shorty for a resonator it's supposed to still give the nice low growl but take away the raspiness and quiet it down a little cuz seriously I love loud exhaust but I'm gonna get in trouble with this... It sounds like a race car ear piercing loud

It's pretty loud! Sounds decent though. Maybe a bit raspy, but what do you expect out of a tiny 1.3L...is there really anything you can do to change the tone?

Edit: I know one thing...my girlfriend would hate it!

I think it sounds great as is, but I don't mind loud exhausts myself as long as it doesn't sound annoying.

ihateyouihateyouihateyouihateyou. lol. JK Sounds awesome man! it does sound a bit loud but I think with a resonator on it will sound perfect.

Also gonna check into my loud valve noise, talked to matt and he is thinking maybe my lash adjusters cant handle the dual spring so maybe it is collapsing the lash adjuster and causing the loud ticking.

Here is a video with the camera mounted on the back window near the exhaust. Guys tell me what you think, is it too loud? Is it too raspy? I kinda think its too loud... it echoes through the neighborhood.

you know ill have to check again cuz after i set it to vacuum i forgot to put a light on it and see

[blkfordsedan]

Congrats, it sounds pretty sweet! Where is your timing set at now?

Re: My n/a super b3 build

No prob.. It can actually happen on efi also, not 100% sure of the cause on efi though

Ah ok, ive heard of that problem with carb engines just didn't know the term for it lol thanks for clearing that up

Re: My n/a super b3 build

Dieseling is when you shut the engine off and it kinda hiccups and keeps running for a second or so... Its caused by detonation, when you shut the engine down it has no spark but the high compression is still igniting the fuel and with a carb it is still giving fuel from the idle jet because the carb gives fuel through air flow through the venturi, so they have a solenoid that screws into the idle jet and you supply ignition power so when you shut off the car it closes the idle jet and cuts fuel to the carb and stops the dieseling... Dieseling can damage things.
