Dash setting for Model B Carburetor

Posted by Larry Jenkins on July 09, 1997 at 15:47:08

I have a Model B engine with a C head and a Model B carburetor in my 1930 Coupe.It appears like the carburetor dash setting on my car is very sensitive which affects the acceleration of my engine.If the setting isn't "right on the money", the engine has very little power when the gas pedal is pushed down.When the setting is right, the engine will accellerate normally.My question is to those who may have similar experince with this, what is the recommended starting, cold, warmup and normal operating temperature settings?Are there any other fuel control "tips" for getting the maximum power from the engine?The engine has just been totally rebuilt, and may be a little tight.Thanks, guys..Larry Jenkins
