Datsun 210 1980 weber

[damians]

Hi;

   I own a 210 1980 datsun for about 12 years. It has never let me down. Recently I install a 32/36

weber and I'm having trouble making it run smooth. I dont know if the installation is correct. Please someone let me know what Im doing wrong.

I don't know you level of expertise so please don't take offense. With that said the most common problems with Weber installation are as follows;

 

1: Base plate /adapter plate leaking vacuum.

Answer-spray carb cleaner around base and see if idle increases....if so you have a leak. In my opinion the only adapter worth using is the high rise.

 

2: Jetted incorrectly for a A14/A15.

Answer: refer to datsun1200.com they are a great source for accurate information.

 

3: Not tuned correctly after installation.

Answer: refer to weber site.

 

The most common problem is they are idling to lean and run to rich.

 

Hope that helps

I just mailed a copy of the Holly/Weber 5200 manual (same as your 28/32 if it is a downdraft) to a friend who will be putting it on his website in a week or so

It will be here when he gets it uploaded:
