IMO Junk it. For the past yr & a 1/2 a friend of mine has done everything there is to do to his Weber on a new engine & it got terrible gas mileage & the idle problems. He did contact Weber & there was a kit to take care of it or something about on different parts for the carb to help the problem.
Since removed he now gets 18MPG (4:10 gears w/33" tires & a fresh 258) w/his new carb. What carb U ask, the Ole Carter, yep, the Ole Carter. He plugged the vacuum holes in the air horn & made it a true 2BBL w/out the emission stuff etc. Been working well. Installed this past week.
I have heard of Webers all around the forum about this problem & how can I do this or that cause it won't run right on my Jeep.
If U look here, U will see a 22 yr old Carter at work w/ only two rebuilds & one of them was by me. I'm going to look into the vacuum thing for the Carter.
P.S. He has his Weber for sale if U want it. :sneak:
