Re: Weber carb adjustment

Hi Graham:

Take a look at this page:

http://alfaclub.org/techstff/tunewebr.htm

Also, check to see if you have a proper low-pressure fuel pump, as part of 
your Spica to Weber conversion.  The FI pump puts out way too much 
pressure, and all you need for the carbs is a few psi, i.e. under 5.
