I'm sitting at a 200 and 210 for air correctors and 145 and 155 for main and secondary fuel. I didn't change my idle so that should be 55 and 45 for primary and secondary if I remember right. The only thing that I think still affects my setup is the floater and I have no clue on how to adjust it but I heard that it was tricky so until I find out I'm leaving it the hell alone. She's running pretty well as it is.

Didn't know that about holley carbs....but I'm even more glad that I have a weber now lol and the only reason I really would think about the 7gme is the torque increase. I think that would really improve the truck cruising through all of these hills. I don't think my hand ever leaves the gear shift if I want to get somewhere at the speed limit. I DO NOT want to try and set a speed land record in that truck....in the sand storms we have occasionally you can see my tires turned visibly to keep my rubber on the road instead of blown off of it lol. It's a really light truck and I'm sure the 5" doesn't help either.

So I'll start off by saying I know little to nothing about Carbs. My mechanic is a toyota guy and he told me that my stock carb on my 82' 22R was bad so he sold me his Weber since he was converting to FI.

Now I idle rough and I thought it was a misfire until I changed the spark plugs and it changed nothing. I asked him if the carb was jetted for 7,000 feet in elevation where I live and he said its not.

Do you think I need to jet it? If so, what do I need to buy?

Thanks a ton

You might have to get a high elevation jet kit as well to get the higher air jets that you will need. I found one at lc engineering.

http://www.toyotacatalog.net/M1WebGe...2-333DF8E13696

I run the biggest air correctors in the kit and I have the same fuel jets in as you would at sea level (roughly, they are one size down) and mine runs like a gem at about 5k elevation. my settings are just up the page in this thread.

Good luck....oh and if you change out the idle jets on the side....make sure that they are tight....I had one fall out while I was driving on the highway.....all of a sudden no idle lol.
