And I can make more than $1.89 in 6.2 minutes.............. Speeding pays.......
The air filter on the carb...
.... Here is my "Ram Air" Im sure Gnarls won't enjoy it but its the only air cleaner canister I found that I thought I could make work.
... also living in Tucson where 115 degrees days are common in the peak of summer I needed cooler air. There were a few summer days in city stop light driving as I would be rolling up to stop light in neutral it would choke out, sputter and die on me due to having nothing but super heated thin air to breath. .
Especially at freeway speeds, also living in Tucson where 115 degrees days are common in the peak of summer I needed cooler air.
While I do appreciate your innovative ingenuity.... I doubt your "choke out, sputter and die" problem is due to the summer temps in Tucson. I've lived here AZ for 26 years in the Phoenix Metro areas and never had a problem with any of my Toy trucks due to excessive summer air temps.
Looking at the air flow, velocity, pressure, and aerodynamics, without knowing what the air flow will be at your scoop, there actually may be a low pressure area at the opening?
One, re-gear to move your peak torque RPM in the MPH range you drive mostly... to move the peak torque numbers to the RPM range you drive mostly at freeway speeds. Either way it's not inexpensive, but should work very effectively.
1. Main jet are primarily responsible of fuel flow in middle range RPM2. As RPM goes up A/C and E-tubes become more significant3. At max throttle A/C has most effect on fuel flowWould you guys agree?
Here is a better picture of the scoop
My hybrid experiment in the 4runner started blowing exhaust and large quantities of oil (like all the oil) out the PCV breather this weekend. This indicated to me that it may not be healthy any more .
.... I looked at possible solutions and decided that a hardline run back over the fuel pump should work well.
How did the Weber fair through the winter? Also wondering have you experienced any negative side effects from the "hill climb mod" you did? I've heard that you can experience stalling and hiccups going downhill after the mod. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
Well I took the 4runner out of service in November. It did get pretty darned cold (single digits) during that time and I had no issues with the cold start at all. It was I fact as good or better than the stock carb at those temps. I did not get to try the Weber in the super sub-zero we had all winter though. As far as the hill climb mod; I ran it at all angles up, down, sideways with no issues of any kind. Not sure why it would produce a hiccup since it doesn't effect the bowl and nothing can spill into the carb but maybe I am missing something. I think as long as you vent the bowl to a charcoal canister instead of the carb you would be fine. If you dump the new vent back into the carb then it would certainly flood down hill.I am going to be using this carb on my 1980 pickup and should have it going soon. I'll try to find a stupid steep down hill and see if I can make it burp.
I assume that fuel line insulation was not a viable option? ...
