Hi there. Based on the dellorto seting, I suspect that you are running lean. I rec'd 150 at least. Standard 32 choke is already running 142. I had selected jets based on AF reader and 155 main 180 air corrector is just nice (1:12 under load). I had chose 175 air corrector for a slightly richer high end (1:11 under load).

Do note that the set up is meant for dellortos and I am not sure if it's applicable for webers. There is a high chance that I might be wrong due to unknown emulsion tubes which changes the jet requirements. Good luck.

You might want to try- original jet size/original choke size X enlarged choke size. Round up to the bigger next available jet.

Hi. I have cheacked the Weber manual. I think you are running a little lean. And if you might get a better response if you posted in maintenance section.

the only thing you can do for the right settings is go to a Dynojet for the right settings.

and on a 16v you have to use at least 40mm carb´s no 36 mm
