BNE (northside) carb setup
well engine is running kinda, is anyone out there willing to help me out setting up a set of 40 IDF's with jet doctors ...got all my timing n such
sorted out but be dammed if I can sync or tune these webers.Iit's running and idles ok but I seem to be getting some backfiring thru the muffler
(unburnt gas,correct?) when its under load.
I have set timing at around 28 deg @3000 (009 dizzy) points are gapped correctly, no air leaks and everything is new.
Could this also be fuel psi related?
willing to pay in beers or similar.....
Cheers Binner

What size engine with what size jets & venturi's ??? You sure no exhaust leaks ???
Backfiring often means lean, which suggests you're not at a good starting point with the jets rather than just balance issues.
Once you are at a good starting point, things I'd be doing in order are:
1. Fuel pressure (3.5 psi MAX).
2. Bench set carbs, balance & adjust linkage
3. Timing and point gap
4. Balance while running
5. Idle speed while running
6. Idle mix adjustment while running (lean best idle)
7 Repeat 4 through to 6 until a nice stable idle
Otherwise happy to take a few of those beers in a week or two if you're still having probs !!!

Give us engine and carb details i.e. capacity, cam, compression, exhaust (just as an idea what kind of motor it is) and carb details of venturis,
idles, mains, emulsions etc.

If it is a "bang" through the exhaust - my guess is rich
A "snap" or "sneeze" out the carbs - indicates lean
Idles I would start with 50's
vents are what they are - assuming you have a 2L or something, I would be expecting 32's
mains - 4.2X the vent = 135's
Airs - 180's
Mixture screws - 3 turns out

160 is too large for 34's in my opinion and would be causing the backfire
140 or 145 would be better

does the upgrade kit have a spray bar instead of the normal set up??
cause that mucks things up for opinions on jetting - well it certainly did on my dells
you run a fatter main - so my opinion above may mean jack

spray bar and they supply you with new jets to fit, I put these in the last set of webers I rebuilt (40 IDFs) on a 1641 engine and they were fine. I
was running this with electronic ignition and standard coil too.
**N E W S F L A S H**
I may be getting somewhere, the points (brand new) are already pitted after only running for about 1.5 hrs in total. I replaced them with new ones and
it ran sweet for about 10/15 mins then started backfiring so I took out the points and BAM pitted to high hell.
I'm running a mallory MSD blaster 2 with a ballast resistor and standard 009 points dizzy. Maybe this is not the setup to use with standard points,
anyone?

No worries, sounds like it could be rich with the 160's if it's not ignition

ok, so I swapped the coil for a 3 ohm standard coil and B A M ! it runs perky!!!!! (yeah I'm a crack head) I bought all this gear so long ago I
can't remember whats what, so I just went ahead and shoved in the master blaster coil for electronic ig only which I was going to purchase but
instead for some dumb reason I bought a points dizzy and just installed it without thinking and hence it was running like shit!!!.
So all I need now is to actually sync the carbs and I'm there. Been tearing round the neighbour hood all arvo and its running nice, just fine tuning
now.
also had TACH BOUNCE so I installed a 1 amp diode inline and now it reads fuggin perfect!!! i likr it when things work 
Thanks for all the replies and I'm just glad it's almost ready for rego

ok ,so now a step further...pulled out the EMPI fuel pump (noisy) and bought one of these http://www.fuelflow.co.nz/FF_cms_03/eshop?page=shop.product_details&flypa... and one of these http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mallory-Ignition-4309-Aluminum-Fuel-Pressure-Regul...
3 year warranty, super quiet pump, mallory reg with bypass getting bang on 3.5 psi and able to adjust up to around 4 if needed. So after all that it
finally runs nice and now just gotta get some help on the fine tuning and synching. Is it really worth buying a snail sync to tune or is a piece of
pipe and good ears just as good?
cheers Binner

i don't ecommend a snail, thee is usually no gasket between the elocity stack and ai-ilte bottom plate so it is meaningless imO. Just get each
cylinde esponding the same to idle mixtue adjustment and you'll be in sync.

i figured they would be a bit of a waste, I kinda trust my ears more but I am going a bit tone deaf so we will see
So I am right in saying that I am bringing the highest down to the lowest, is this correct?
Is this sequence correct?
1> throttle linkages off
2a > idle screw just touching then dialed in 1 turn
b> mix screws dialled in to just touching then turned out 2.5 turns
3> set at static timing and adjust barrels with 12.5 mm hose pipe n tone deaf ear (car running obviously)
4> reattach linkages and make sure they move in synch
5> set 009 30-32 BTDC @3500 REVS
6> let it fall to wherever and note BTDC @ idle 900+/- REVS
7> fine tune timing on the road
8> pour a Sailor Jerry and sit back thinking about how much money has been spent on the project 
Just fitted electronic ignition too so lets see how that goes.....

^^ yep, my version
2a. 1/2 turn on idle stop screw
b. 1 3/4 turn for the mixture
3 adjust carbs using mixture screws to also help with balance, as you said, screw that makes most difference down idle speed or up other carb
depending on where the speed is at first.
