Re: Fuel pressure regulator??????
Well bud, I have been a wrench for many years and everyone looks the obvious
first, check the float level and make sure it is set properly and that there
is nothing obstructing the float needle. If all is ok rejet the carb on
both the idle and high speed jet. Get the two next smaller jets for each
try the next smallest first. Put a fresh set of plugs in drive it for about
50 miles, pull the #1 plug and look at it. If it is light tan to a dull
whitish color you are right on, if it is black you should install the second
of smaller jet. If equipped with an idle mixture screw turn it in till it
seats (gently) and then turn it out 21/2 turns, tweak as required.

You need a regulator for your system. These are readily available from many
places. Weber carbs "like" lower fuel pressure than most carbs (2-4 PSI).
Here is some info on recommended pressure for the Weber carbs:

That is what the guys at weber said that I need to lower the pressure.
Thanks for the link Chris I'm gona give it a try.

Re: Fuel pressure regulator??????
I had this same problem. I fiddled around with everything in the
carberator and tried the pressure regulator. The pressure regulator
could not be turned down to a low enough pressure without starving the
carberator for fuel. I bought an electric fuel pump rated for the
correct low pressure and it has run like a dream for two years. I was
able to lower the float to keep off camber flooding to a minimum.
Another trick if your replace a one barrel with the Weber is to turn
the carb. 90 degrees which puts the bowl stick out toward the drivers
side. The thing will not flood out even when the wheels start coming
up (I don't like to talk about how I know that). I bought a Purolator
universal replacement pump at Advanced with the right pressure rating.

could not be turned down to a low enough pressure without starving the
carberator for fuel. I bought an electric fuel pump rated for the
correct low pressure and it has run like a dream for two years. I was
able to lower the float to keep off camber flooding to a minimum.
Another trick if your replace a one barrel with the Weber is to turn
the carb. 90 degrees which puts the bowl stick out toward the drivers
side. The thing will not flood out even when the wheels start coming
up (I don't like to talk about how I know that). I bought a Purolator
universal replacement pump at Advanced with the right pressure rating.
