1984 toyota carb problems

Been having problems with my carb and was going to put a weber 32/36 and was wondering if i should have any problems switching out the carbs. Never done it before and was wondering if i will run into any problems. 1984 Remanufactured 22r but everything is still stock on it.

The only things I can tell you are go up a size or two on your main jets, and make sure the adapter plates seal up. Factory Weber adapter plates are crap and you may have vacuum leaks even if you use RTV in addition to the gaskets, I know I did. Also, you don't have to have a fuel cut solenoid if your engine is timed correctly and you set the idle speed properly (between 700-850 rpms). You will need more than what the carb kit contains to do a proper install though, mainly EGR and PAIR block-off plates. You can either make your own or purchase them from LC Engineering;

I had much better luck getting the LCEngineering spacers to seal, even with the hard reusable gaskets they came with and no rtv. As far as jetting, think about your elevation. I'm at nearly 4,000', and the 140 main jet works fine here, but most of my wheeling and driving takes me closer to 8,000 and it runs rich enough it stumbles a lil. I would say, depending on your tuneup, you could get away with the stock or maybe a size larger if you're at sea level or close to.
