Webber?? anyone using? help out there?

Having some issues with a 2 barrel weber 38DGES
on my six 250 fouling plugs, idles iratic, fuel pressure?? maybe too much.. I had read many posts on how great these are..And when its running well it is sweet, but most of the time not quite dialed in. valves are adjusted HEi is working I replaced my first weber 34-32 ( flooded out all the time) to the 34-34 which same sized barrel but thought you guys may have also been using 2 barrels over the stck?? Suggestions what works the best ???Let me know Don t really want to go 4 barrel!

I bought a brand new Weber progressive carb last year to use on Skooby. (/6 225) Despite spending a ridiculous amount of time adjusting it and testing it on the machine, it always ran too rich. I finally gave up and switched to a Holley 2BBL instead. It runs great now.

ive had way to much experiance with webber progressives, our fuel pumps put out way too much fuel pressure, these carbs are touchy but when they are set up right its a great carb. most all progressives need only 3psi of pressure and that may be alittle high on some,please dont use the "dial type reg" its really more of a flow reg not a pressure reg. a real fuel regulator is a must. i use a holley low pressure adjustable 3 port reg, 1 port is for fuel into reg 1 is for reg to carb and 1 for a pressure gauge should only set you back about 50 bucks for the whole set up. the carbs are never jetted correctly out of the box so you will have to rejet the primary and some times the second. if you are running a hedder and have no intake heat it will never run right, these carbs must have intake heat. takes time and patience but to get them right but with the right set up it pays off with good mpg and the added power.
have fun

Yeah i think i have way tooo much fuel. I will look into regulators..
I new i came to the right place..thanks

Althought I suspect you have a number of things to coordinate to make your webber tight as bowtie said everything, a Webber like any carb won't run efficiently without the right jetting. If I know what jets you needed I'd tell you. However, I'd find the jetting used on other engines (any really) with similar valve diameters and displacements. If you get the right jets then you should be able to coordinate everything else. Good luck but once you get it right it should be right forever. Happy motoring.

you might call langdons and see what they suggest, seems like alot of stovebolt guys are using them now.

looks light a tiny hole in the manifold was the issue and tired valve springs also!
