icon5.gif  ke30 carby question Fri, 09 April 2004 02:13 Go to next message
I have just bought a ke30 with stock 3k so far I am very happy with it. I took off the carby and manifolds today to fix an exhaust leak and am bamboozled by the carby. in the secondary side of the carb there are 2 butterflies the top one is just flopping around, there doesn't seam to be any thing opening it. Is it opened by vacume from inside the carby, is there a linkage missing. i have no idea.
my celica's carby looked very similar and had vacume operated secondaries but this seams to have two butterflies one after the other. any ideas????

this is the flap which is bent, and has a counterweight onthe outside??

called the "high speed valve" it does the same job as a vac operated secondary sort of... even if you floor it, the high speed valve stays closed until there is enough vacuum to open it..

if you remove the flap, you get a little more flow thru the carb, but then you need to pay attention to how soon you fully open the throttle so it doesn't bog down...

oh and it will only open when the throttle is maybe half open (or more).. open throttle full, and see if you can open it vis the counterweight.

thanks heaps. i thought it would be some thing like that. taking it off again tomorrow morning so ill rip it out and see how it goes there it bogs down like a bitch if you just snap it open any way so may as well have a little more top end for free.
thanks again
mike
