Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />

Quote:<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><br />

<strong>32</strong>/36 again.<br />

Thanks yodta...<br />

Aux. venturi size is 4mm.<br />

Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />

sounds about right -- I'm sure Sarge can step in here, but I thought for <strong>the</strong>se carbs <strong>the</strong>y were usually ei<strong>the</strong>r 3.5 or 4<br />

Sarge, what's <strong>the</strong> deal with <strong>the</strong> aux. vents again?<br />

Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />

38's have a wide market, being originally for a LC it really should have had 4.5's . No need to remove <strong>the</strong>m , <strong>the</strong> casting number<br />

should be easily visible. The emulsion tubes are a different story. You'll have to unscrew <strong>the</strong> air jets after removing <strong>the</strong> top to<br />

access <strong>the</strong> emulsion tubes. Once <strong>the</strong> air jets are removed you can use a slightly tapered steel pick , just a cheap one and not<br />

hardened steel as it may break off. Jam it into <strong>the</strong> emulsion tube and wiggle it from side to side to break it loose <strong>the</strong>n lift it out. If<br />

<strong>the</strong>y are stubborn, you can use a 3x.5mm tap and screw it into <strong>the</strong> tube to remove it. The interior bore at <strong>the</strong> top can withstand<br />

some abuse as it's not affecting it's operation. They should be <strong>the</strong> same on both sides, just remove one and read it's F series<br />

number. I'd bet it's an F50....<br />

what's <strong>the</strong> function of <strong>the</strong> aux. venturis and <strong>the</strong> relationship of size to performance?<br />

Emulsion tubes are both F50.<br />

Sarge Re: <strong>Weber</strong> <strong>32</strong>/<strong>36DGV</strong> Tuning<br />

The size of <strong>the</strong> auxilaries varies timing of <strong>the</strong> mains in relation to air speed and volume. Smaller venturi sizes around 3.5 will<br />

react quicker at low volumes than a 4.5 , but at midrange <strong>the</strong> 4.5 will come in very hard . A nice boost on a lot of <strong>32</strong>/36's is to<br />

swap out <strong>the</strong> 3.5 auxilary in <strong>the</strong> secondary for a 4 or 4.5 instead. Gives it a harder kick when <strong>the</strong> skinney pedal is smashed down<br />

for passing/rooster tails...<br />
