Ya I understand that I have to have the carbs adjusted right and \"Aircare doesn't care if I \"don't feel like waiting\" to learn\".
I am trying to learn, but I am getting a little anxious to ride.
I took my daily driver off the road 6 years ago. Bought a 56 shell and have been collecting parts and rebuilding since. Last year I drove it for about 3 days, just for the Westcoast showdown and the Great Canadian. This is my last step and am just getting a little stoked as I am a month behind my schedule , lol. I just miss my bug is all.
As far as the engine, I'll have to dig up the specifics. I bought a 68 bug that had been torched and the engine compartment was fine. Basically bought it for the engine. I have all the paper work, 1776, not sure of the cam and heads, 009 dist/pertronix. From the reciepts I have in storage, the engine has been ported polished and blueprinted. Barely any miles on it, It rides great, smooth and fast. Some of you may remember a purple/blue pearled 68 at the motorsports show 7 or 8, maybe 9 years ago? That's the engine I currently have.
Anyhow, I don't have the old carb/manifold setup that cruised through aircare. When I moved back here from the island they misteriously went missing ... hmmm just that box. Odd.
I do have an OLD set of weber ICTs and linkage, and the brand NEW Brosol/Solex kit. I have a few other carbs around, but most need rebuilding, which I can do... but tune em??? LOL.
So I guess I'll just head into the garage and keep trying ... hmmm, $120 - $200 to have them tuned, which equals 5 - 9 times through aircare... the knowledge and experience will be free.
Thanks for the helpful comments.
