[ROVERNET - UK] Re: TC CARB TUNE

[Paul Smith]

I like the DGVs too.  Could almost fit one on the SC.
What I have wanted to do to the TC is fit DCOEs.  Reckon it would work
beautifully.
If I can find a DCOE manifold that gets somewhere near the 45 degree angle
of the TC head I'd go that way, and make an adapter plate.  So far no go.

I had a similar experience with the Colortune, but in the end it turned out 
that I couldn't get the perfect color because the carb was defective and not

able to get the mixture correct (leaks on the far side of the jet or 
whatever). Also, on some engines there is always one cylinder which actually

can't be set the same as the others because of the design of the intake 
manifold or the way it enters the chamber. I don't remember if it was the TC

or one of my old MGs, but the cylinder closest to the firewall was always 
off.  Of course, the best thing I ever did to the MGB was to install a
single 
Weber DGV. Transformed the car.

The Gunson CO meter only measures CO (as the name implies). When I was
trying 
to get my SD1 through inspection, it was easy to dial in the CO, but
whenever 
I did, the NO2 (?) would go out of tolerance on the shop's emissions 
equipment. There's a tradeoff on that adjustment, as well.
