Weber 40's on 2 litre.
Big Stu - 20/10/03 at 03:46 PM

I am planning to fit weber carbs to my zetec engine. The engine will be the standard 2 litre with webcon ignition. I already have a set of weber DCOM 40's, I was planning to use these in order to get the car up and runnning, then get some 45's through time.

Does anyone know if the 40's can be set up in order to run the engine safely. I understand that perhaps the full performace capacity will not be released but I am not too worried about that at the moment. I am just looking for a safe setting that is not going to damage the engine, by running lean.

Any help would be great,

Cheers

Stuart

Any idea what settings would be required, and somewhere to buy the jets/chokes or should i not waste my money and just wait and get 45's

BTW if you better perfomance and better mpg i would go for throttle bodies

the only thing is thay are f**king exspensive eg. burton power do one for £1749.99

but if you whant to build you own efi system there is a post on it called diy efi

im looking to spend about £200 on this and hopefully pull it off and get some good performance
