My 38 Weber is too much for the 22r (i think)

[ga-toy]

I saw the topic here a few days ago regarding this same subject.  I have had my 38 weber on my rebuilt 22r for about 5 tellico trips now and this last time got kind of annoying.  On a steep incline I had to flood the weber just to get it to fire. I don't remember this kind of flooding with my ol OEM carb.  I may be looking for something a little more sensible with gas also. This thing was eating more gas than a CJ (inline 6).  Has anyone went back to OEM toyota carb or just went to the 32/36 Weber?  Any input is great!

FYI---I am running hedman headers to a 2.25" exhaust with no cat and a dynomax..

Input:  I have a 32/36 and would NOT recommend it for anything other than a street truck.  You'll have the exact same problems.  I've had much better luck with the stock toy 22r carbs and plan to buy the lc engineering adapter if I don't end up using my holley 4bbl manifold.

i like my 32/36  if  for no other reason  its  simple

What does the 32/36 do to on the gas mileage?

[kneedownnate]

Depends on how you jet it.  I got 19mpg once when it was tuned to pass smog, but mostly 17 at that time.  Got 13-15 when it was tuned for better drivability and power.

I'd recommend making some adjustments to the 38 before you toss it for something else. I know guys run them with good results.

22R Aisan.........326CFM
32/36 Weber.....325 CFM
38 Weber.........390CFM

If it's tuned right, theres no reason why the 38 should be too much

As for the argument that the stock 22R carbs runs more CFM than a 32/36 Weber, well as you can see, it's realistically (not technically) incorrect, but I think the Weber is way more sporty onroad vrs. the stock carbs dependability in off camber situations (offroad).

I think carbs unlimited should have off road parts for these by now. They told me a few years ago they were gonna get kits so they could handle steep inclines.

i got a incline kit for my 32/36 no clue whats in it but it was a pretty penny

[kneedownnate]

Doesn't it consist of plugging the float bowl vent and opening up a different vent so fuel doesn't spill over?  Maybe that's just doing it on the cheap though?

I just put a 38 in my truck the other day and so far I am very pleased with it.  I can't say how it does off-road since all the trails are under 5 feet of snow.  How do you have yours jetted/set?  It sounds like it might be running rich since your gas milage is bad.

he;s going to trade carbs with me,  my 32/36  for his 38

[kneedownnate]

With the extent of your mods, I think your engine will be very happy with the 38
