Carb Adjustments
So, after doing my carb rebuild this spring, the truck has never cold-started well. Once warm though, she runs great. I've played with just about every different choke setting (electric) with some success, but nothing too great. I think the fuel mixture and idle need to be tweaked (I never touched them during the rebuild), but I just do not have the time or the expertise to deal with this right now.
So, although I don't like the thought, I have scheduled the truck to go to a mechanic to get it professionally tuned and dialed in on Friday. So, what are your experiences? Do you find that these adjustments are usually well made by the "profesionals"? The atual manager of the shop admitted that this was definitely a job for the "grey-haired" guys in his shop. As he put it, the ones that know what bias ply tire sizes are... BTW, this is the same shop that did my front end alignment the other day, and definitely got rid of the annoying pull - she tracks straight as an arrow on the highway now. Thanks in advance for the feedback. |
