Just curious what everyone is getting. I'm trying to get my carbs tuned after rebuilding. Any help is appreciated. B

The vacuum numbers better be stupid low at wise open throttle,  otherwise you need more carburetor.

What do you need the info for?  Manifold vacuum on a TR is very odd, it's different depending on where you take the reading.

What you up to?

It's irrelevant,  different for every engine in the world. Cam profile,  idle speed,  exhaust pressure, ignition timing,  engine load, cam timing all come into play.

Someone else's vacuum number will be totally useless to you.

What are you fighting?

Agreed mine seemed low at idle so I was curious what others had experienced.

You are pretty much trying to obtain the highest possible vacuum reading,  what it is is what it is.

The more advanced the idle timing,  the less throttle blade you need in it.

Where is the ignition timing at?

Going out on Mojave Friday for some more tuning. Doing it on the trailer is a pain...

You should never adjust idle mix out of the water anyway.  There's no load,  you will just end up redoing it.

Makes sense.  I'm glad me live in Bullhead now. Makes testing at idle and WOT much more convenient.

Launch @ The Riverside- sure beats that Katherines wait/walk.

Mines at ~900 rpm at idle. Not a T-ram. on the trailer its at ~1100.
Heavy azz sled here, It helps at the docks and no wake zones.

Once I get it all tuned we will hit the river. Don't want to worry about the current while I'm tinkering. B
