Most of <strong>the</strong> LC's used 142 mains , since yours has 180 airs that would be my guess . You may have to remove a jet to see <strong>the</strong><br />
size stamping ,it's on <strong>the</strong> sides of <strong>the</strong> jets . Also, be sure to look at <strong>the</strong> casting numbers just above <strong>the</strong> linkage, <strong>the</strong>re are several<br />
variations of <strong>the</strong> <strong>38DGES</strong> . Just over <strong>the</strong> weekend I had a guy bring one with some issues over for tuning and found it had 29mm<br />
venturis , a very odd size . Most normal market units had 27mm , some later and new models use 30mm . Knowing <strong>the</strong> basic size<br />
of <strong>the</strong> main venturi, auxilary venturi and emulsion tubes helps a lot when folks ask me tuning questions . All those factors<br />
determine jetting overall....<br />

Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />
Thanks Sarge and everyone else. I think I should send you all Christmas cards. Here is what I have:<br />
venturis 27mm (that's what <strong>the</strong> stamped # is)<br />
air correction jets 180<br />
main jets 55<br />
Does that sound way off? How do those affect rpm range if anyone knows? Keep in mind I have a celica so I may actually hit<br />
redline once in a while.<br />
Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />
For that engine, I'd say a fair bit larger on <strong>the</strong> idle jets and maybe down a little on mains and airs . Give it a shot and see first , but<br />
here's my guess:<br />
60 idles<br />
140 mains<br />
170 air<br />
F50 tubes<br />
BTW, what was <strong>the</strong> size on <strong>the</strong> mains and auxilary venturis??<br />

Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />
I've got a 38DGAS that has been converted to electric choke.<br />
Idles 55<br />
Mains 155<br />
Airs 180<br />
Main venturi 27<br />
Can someone please tell me how to find out my aux. venturi size and my emulsion tube type?<br />
I plan on installing <strong>the</strong> carb as is and see what happens. If I am not happy I will rejet it or maybe later swap on <strong>the</strong> <strong>32</strong>/36 again.<br />

<strong>the</strong> aux. venturis are <strong>the</strong> things that span <strong>the</strong> throats in this shot.<br />
you can wiggle <strong>the</strong>m a little bit to get <strong>the</strong>m out.<br />
I understand that 145 mains work nicely in <strong>the</strong> 38DGAS for <strong>the</strong> 22R motor.<br />
