1049382 dont feel bad your not the first, or will you be the last with this problem. I am new to the whole Jeep scene as you are, but the first thing I learned is how much a piece of S&@T the carter bbd is. I fiddled with mine and it would run fine for a day or to till finally i was just about...

1049383 From what I undestand you would want to use the 91 or new 4.0 head because they are the hi-port HO head, but i think you could use any year you wanted if you had to, but you would get the performance outta the 91-up head[addsig]

1049484 Well I have alway had good luck with Bosch plugs they are a bit pricey, but if your not worried about then then I would say go for it. You mentioned you orderd your TFI kit, can you order that set up as a complete kit??? Reason I ask is that the TFI Upgrade is broken down...

1049525 Just thought I would let ya'all know how I made out with my Weber install. Got the K551-38 series carb, and installed it on my 258ci it took about 1 hour total, and I gotta say it makes my 79 CJ run and feel like a whole differnt jeep. I can honestly say (as of now anyway) I would...

1050202 Ya I just installed a weber 38dgvs series on my 79 cj 7 258ci, I will admit I am not the most greatest mechanic in the world....lotta cussin can be heard in my garage but as far as the Weber goes it was a dream to install.....just wait til you get the kit, you will see with the...

1050284 Your right Jay I didnt think holding the throttle to the floor to get it started was all that great for it.............but when your stopped in the middle of an intersection you gotta do what you gotta do. All day I been wondering what the problem could be.....its a brand new Weber...

1050449 how is your jeep running besides the headers turning orange?? The reason I ask I had the same problem come to find out it was a leaning out, you may want to check into that a engine running extremly lean isnt going to last long without something worse happening[addsig]

1050510 You didnt say but I am assuming you are running a 258ci with the 2 barrel carb, and manual transmission, if you are follow these specs: Initial timing at curb idel ( vacuum hose disconected) set to 6 degrees curb idel speed rpm set to 650 Hope this helps [addsig]

1050681 Oh ya and one other thing, a few of you guys mentioned valve seals and piston rings.....i dont doubt you knowledge but as far as my wallet goes I hope your not right, wouldnt I have experienced this problem sooner, or is it just a coincidence that it all happend after the new carb...

1050938 Well I went through the hole vacuum system with a very good friend of mine who is a top rate mechanic. Seems as though i did have everything set up correct but in the process of converting over to the Weber, I decided to replace all the 23 year old grommets and such......well for some...
