Boy... You are really running out of real estate to work with aren't you?

jnimbostratus

Haha yea ya think? Still need to find a home for the fpr but then I'm pretty much done looking for space.

Wired and calibrated. im a little rich at idle lol


~JM~

Better a tad rich than too lean. Looks like your are over a tad rich though.

Can't wait to hear a ride report.

You may be even richer than you think -- most wideband O2's have a minimum value they can display -- and will display that minimum value even if it is even richer in reality.    That value is about 10.3 for my WEGO III.  I've found my current FJ engine (1314 with lowered compression and huge cams) likes to idle in the low 13's. 

Can't wait to see you get it sorted out and tuned

Awesome project and great progress!  Keep it up!

yesterday i was fabing an adaptor flange for blow off valve and i got into a brawl with the drill press

little flap o flesh


luckily i have medical experience



but really my wife is a nurse so she buttoned me up when i got home last night and today i was able to get the blow off valve setup



then i got my idle to a more comfortable mixture range.

Looks like your thumb got the blow off valve installed...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Power tools vs. skin... Usually the skin loses. Luckily it appears to be a mere flesh wound... Carry on.

Project can't be completed until you've sacrificed some blood on it!  Key is not to sacrifice too much ..,

Well it turns out I did not get my homework done properly. Need to figure out the fuel system. I think I either need a stronger pump or a bypass regulator with the pump I have
