I guess you should have baked it in the oven at 210° also 😂

All in the pursuit of knowledge. Thank you for this.

As mentioned below, let the fuel degrade it and Heat cycles for a year and it brakes on you in the middle of the highway I know.😮😅 proved nothing

The rubber went bad before the plunger and when you got the rebuild kit it comes complete. So , Why the fuss .

Heat and vibration variables?

Give it 10k miles of heat cycling and retest

What taper matches what crown?

yooooooo the washers LOL ok ill stop complaning about them. if that didnt kill it nothing will

Thanks for the info coverage! I recently acquired a set of summit 2618 pistons for a drift motor build & have started to do research on the different metals for valves/pistons/rods/etc! Hoping I made a good choice but seems like they’ll serve the intended purpose for now after seeing this!

Hi, I installed a 1409 marine carb on my classic wood boat. Starts fine and I feel like to have it tuned close but it will not run without the choke at least being partly on and won't idle below 1000 rpms with out shutting down??? Any ideas. Thank you

Until I see proof other wise its snake oil.

Most of the lifters are being made by one of only three manufacturers no matter what name is on the box. Hardness is rarely the problem. I'm betting the actual break in technique is the main problem .Most guys do not do it correctly.

what is a good starting point for a first start? 1 1/5 turns out? i specifically have a 460, with a 750 edelbrock. the engine has edelbrock heads, long tube headers, and an edelbrock cam that produces 11-13 inhg at idle

Not to mention if you over tighten and the tip pushes out the thin part of the carb base. No more idle adjust.

I miss carbs, screws for tuning. That and points, as much as they were a pain, they were so much easier than playing around at the mercedes dealer and paying thousands of dallars.

Alguien sabe para que son los Orings que están dentro donde van los jets primarios y a qué distancia van de profundidad, gracias

well thats helpful info lol oops. i should do that with mine. i wonder if thats why i broke the tip off

Is that going up for sale?

Just swapped from a single carb to a double 600cfm intake. Engine kept running so rich at idle I've called the man that rebuilt my carbs I've went and ordered jets and meters and while waiting for parts found out the rear carb had zero movement on the floats and the needles were stuck!! Maybe I've solved the mystery

23:39 If the only reason to idle it up is to splash more oil, what would it hurt to overfill by a quart or so during cam break in?

How do you feel about the Johnson EDM lifters with the lube hole?

Edelbrock, if they offer a rebuild kit, rebuild it! Otherwise your swapping an intake manifold and fuel pump to swap to a Holley!

🔥

Carb looks great bro. Some of these comments, though.......😅

Thanks from jamaica 🇯🇲

We don't care about the choke!

👍

Air-Raid swirl design in the purple throttle body would have made a better difference in power. Since your running a carburetor style throttle body.

You mentioned Fel pro 1204 kits which look like they have the crossover blocking plates included. Have you used the 1204 gasket kits? Do you like em? I could still order those for my 69 C-20 with 400 SB Thanks!

Another great Video Sir. Question, I have a manual fuel pump with a return fuel to the tank, doe's my fuel regulator need to have a fuel return? Thank you.

Bad to the Bone

Nice supercharger!

Easy to rebuild

💪🏼

Those are all newer models of Carter, you can tell by the bleed screws, the best ones screwed straight into the front instead of being on the angle

valve stem oil seals

My truck surges when driving. I'm running a 600 4bbl edelbrock. What do you think it is. It feels like it runs strong then skips on and off running on all 8.

First of all thank you so much for superb information regarding carburation. You have put my understanding of carburation to another level. Thanks again. I have aquestion for you thats puzzle me alot. I Have a '70 Cadillac Deville, stock engine (375 hp), stock TH400 and stock 2.94:1 rearend. Never passes, and never will, 5000 rpm. When the QJet came to age i put on a Holley 4160 600 cfm (0-80457s). I have a O2 sensor in my exhaust so i can check AFR. What puzzle me is that when passed idle i have almost perfect 14,7:1 AFR. But.... at idle, whatever i adjust or fiddle around with, it never go past 12.0:1. So my idle is a little rough and smell rich. Is there anything i am missing out when adjusting idle or do you have any idea why my AFR are so low in idle?

If the step-up springs do not fix a hesitation, stumble etc. and you go on to change the metering rods, do I need to go back to the first spring that was in there before I started changing to different springs?

I hope Edelbrock is paying you well. I have both and can say the Edelbrock carburetor is now garbage in comparison to even the cheapest chinese carb "copies". The chinese machining is far better. To each their own. Pay what you like. If you're still using a carb chances are you're on a budget.

On mine, the 650 avs2 secondaries wouldn't clear the back of the manifold and open. I tried 2 different spacers, the first one leaked as described in the video, I bought another that was thick enough to seal properly.

Nothing wrong with a set of Facebook rusties. Especially if you’re only putting them on to break in the fresh build

My question is what is the proper procedure for setting the idle/air mix when there are 2 carbs on top of a 6-71 blower? Do I turn the screws all the way in on one of the carbs first or? Enjoy your videos. Thank you.

A few years back I pulled a Carter AFB competition series carburetor off a Chevy 350 engine in a junkyard. Looks like the carburetor was never taken apart from what I can see it did have the off-road kit for the carburetor float bowls already in place

If your timing is all wrong no amount of carb adjustments will fix it. The edelbrock/carter afb is a great street carb that holds a tune and is a set it and forget it carb

The annular boosters are offered as a upgrade for the performers

So with tuning a carb on boat, 3500-5500 rpm constantly. Would that be considered cruise or power mode?? Great video. Thank you for your time posting these. You cleared up alot of gray areas and questions i had beforehand.

Do you have to have that plate between the housing and the cap because I've seen several kits That are $60 to $70 cheaper and the only thing they appear to be missing is that little plate

You talked about progress. Right in front of you is real progress for us. That is the DLC lifter. DLC stands for Diamond Like Coating. This is a plasma coating right from the top of the aerospace world. I had a cam go flat after 1.5 years so I upgraded to a Comp Cams cam and lifters, standard lifters. The first 3 went flat in 5 minutes. Then I watched a video about DLC lifters and their tests. I already had the 4th replacement cam from Summit at the house. I called Summit and asked if I could exchange and pay the difference for the DLC lifters. They said OK. Since then I have had no problems. DLC is almost as hard as a diamond and since made of carbon is very slippery. I have since looked at the lifters 2 times and the cam. The lifters look like they were never used and the cam looks like it is micro polished. Save your money, only use DLC lifters. I called Summit with the success and suggested they advertise this. Two weeks later on You Tube I see Summit ads for DLC lifters. I was very happy as I do not want other people to blow away mass money on roller cams, lifters, and pushrods if there is an easy way out and DLC is it. Go read the tests that Comp Cams did on the Spintron. No matter the spring pressure, rpm, or abuse they did not care. The problem is obviously materials. DLC is the best solution to the problem especially for those who do not have endless money.
