Aircare ]
I had to 'move' to Peachland to insure our '64 bus so that we could go on our first roadtrip (The bus ran great). Maybe someone can help me get this thing to pass so I can move back home?
I'm running a stock 1600 DP, not rebuilt or anything, that runs great and doesn't burn oil at all.
-]I replaced the original distributor with a 009 with Pertronix elctronic ignition.
-]The original 34PICT was toast so I'm running a brand new H30/31PICT with an adapter plate (I already had this carb).
-]The muffler is a beetle unit with 4 pipes.
I have failed aircare twice now for high CO in the driving test.
The first test results (using a #120 jet) were:
DrivingHC 118 (Pass)
CO 6.97 (Fail)
NOx 360 (Pass)
IdleHC 332 (Pass)
CO 5.33 (Pass)
I looked on the aircare website which suggested a rich mixture caused the problem, so I threw in the #112.5 jet from the old carb and re-adjusted the mixture/volume screws. This produced:
DrivingHC 127 (Pass)
CO 7.12 (Fail)
NOx 401 (Pass)
IdleHC 357 (Pass)
CO 2.94 (Pass)
The limit for CO in the driving test is 4.43
I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion as to what I should try next.
I have a single vaccuum distributor laying around, do you think I should try that for more total advance?
Is my jetting reasonable?
Should I just shut up and clean that crazy air filter thing properly(I just sprayed Brakleen through it)?
More details: New cap, rotor, plugs, timed to 30 deg total using measuring tape/pulley method, the aircare guy ran in 2nd gear so it was revving pretty high for the driving test (reduction box transaxle).
Any help would be much apreciated!
