ok, i looked at the carb again, jeeez theres 4 hoses hooked up to the damn thing. one coming from the botton side of the carb over to the head, one to the distrib, 1 that is looped back over onto the carb, and the last one i cant make out what exactly its for, but looks like it goes towards the back of the engine. do i disconnect everything except for the one going to the distrib? i'll grab a picture if it helps shows better.

um there keep the one that goes to the manifold too

get a rebuild kit for maybe 40 bucks and rebuilt it. It will take a couple hours from start to finish(pulling off truck to bolting back up).

simplypv

why rebuilt it? i just want to make sure its hooked up correctly thats all so it starts and runs better.

deserttoy84

Its cheaper and will run the same as a weber search for the download for the Factory Service manual and fix your aisin and it will run fine.

i'm running the same setup on my 87' anyone have a pic of the engine bay with a weber installed. natedawgg94@aol.com is my email you anyone can snap a few. thanks

i bought the truck with the weber on it, as is, the way its currently hooked up. im not interested in dumping any more money into it. im trying to find the time to bolt up the seats and get it running decent(running really rich, and is a bitch to start) so i can sell it. i need something bigger and no one's interested in trades atm. so i gotta do something in order to get the cash out of it.

anyone ever run a 4 barrel carb on a 22r? i know it would run richer than hell, but according to a buddy of mine, would UP the performance. i personally think that a 4 barrel would dump WAAAY too much fuel into the engine, but i may be wrong... im not a big carburator guy... i mean my gfs dad always adjusted the holley i had on my chevy cuz i had no clue about it

deserttoy84

If you had a seriously built motor you might be able to run a small 4 barrel. You can get some big 2 barrel webers. If you want to up the performance a little get a 34/34 instead of a 32/36.

LC Engineering has a few small holley 4bbls that can work for the 22R, but i dont really see the advantage of them. The 38/38 on my truck dumps in PLENTY of gas, and too much gas is not a good thing. Even the LCE supercharger kit comes with a 2bbl weber 38. I think that having a pair of 2bbl sidedraft carbs would give better performance than a 4bbl downdraft on these motors. I am sure there is a reason you dont see too many 4bbls in use.

yeah, thats what i was thinking. i dont have a carburator, but just trying to figure out if my buddy knows what hes talkin bout or if hes an idiot

ok this is what i got going on w my carb. this is how it was when i bought it. i have no idea what the hell to do with it. i cant even get the damn thing started anymore unless i crank it for 10 minutes. then takes forever to sputter to life, warm up, and run at a decent idle. if i rev it fast it'll backfire through the carb.

anyone got some insight?

Looks to be set up the same as mine. I have my vacum advance hooked up straight to the carb. I don't quite know what yours is hooked up to. Make sure your filter is clean and your pump is working.

WSUWESTON

one more thing, make sure your throttle is adjusted correct

simplypv

filter's clean. how do i adjust my throttle?

WSUWESTON

Remove the air filter ass. and Have someone step on the gas pedal and make sure your plates are opening all the way. You throttle is set up differant than mine. I wonder if anyone else has theirs like yours. In your 4th picture yours has been drilled through the bracket on top of the valve cover. Mine is in the fork on the top of the bracket..

what are you using for a throttle cable on the holley 2 barrel, I've just purchased one for my 84 pickup 22r. could you send a pick or give me some direction on what to make. joe

this may be the wrong place to post this but i couldn't find anything on it anywhere. i swapped my stock 22r carb to a weber 34 dgec and was wondering how to hook up my vacuum lines. im having issues with it now and cant figure them out. i have a problem with dieseling. they dont make a fuel cut off solenoid (that i can find for my carb). ive tried checking to make sure my carb closes all the way when i shut it off and it does. i have had the timing reset and that didnt do anything. my old carb was setup for vac advance and vac retard. the new carb only has vac advance, i dont know what to do about the retarding. i ran a vac line from the intake manifold straight to the vac retard and shut it off and it work but when i try to start it back up it wont start because the retard is higher vacuum than the advance. so im lost what to do. anyone do this swap and have this issue? if not if you did the sway so i can see how you went about plugging and running all the vacuum line please send photos. thanks in advance.
