ignition switch is now in the proccess of being taken care of by a kill switch and looks like I have another electrical gremlin now also where I am also hooking up a push button starter. already had the parts so figured might as well get them in there in the mean time.

just curious though as far as the jets/airbleeds and emulsion tubes how do you know which one you need to tune when adjusting this carb? this way if I ever do change something on this car to not be stock how do I go about figuring which is which since I would assume not all changes are made by just fuel jets

Still looking for a plate at a reasonable $$$.
the notes I have say 135 main fuel and 140 secondary fuel, from the Pinto motor, should be close on this carb. Air fuel bleed emulsion tubes should likewise be close enough to not worry about. You can use the richer mixture at lower rpm and will most likely rev higher than the 2300 with the smaller motor and balance out acceptably. If you think that the car is too rich at high rpm, run it up, push in the clutch and shut it off, coast to the side of the road and pull a plug to see if it is too rich... If you got the ignition switch issue handled that is...

I found a holley 5200 from a 79 fairmont and I'm unsure on where I would even start jetting this for my stock 76 accord.
plus once I did start trying to tune it I would know if I was to go with a bigger jet/air bleed or a different emulsion tube

I know nothing about these carbs and the only person I know of who has tuned a carb hasn't tuned anything without needles and jets and I'm not sure where to even start since I'm not 100% sure on how these even work.


also does anyone have a DGV adapator to fit it to my cvcc intake manifold?
