Paul,
Hello! I have a TR7 I just got with twin 32/36 DGEV. It is essentially the
same setup
as the TR6 version, but maybe with different jets. I am definitely lukewarm
about these
things. They did pass PA smog inspection! However, there is a flat spot from
idle
to 3000 rpm. Worse with more pedal. No miss, just lack of power.
If I go by the Weber manual by Braden, it looks as if ONE 32/36 would be proper
for a 2 liter engine! I suspect that the airflow speed is too low at 2000-3000
rpm
to properly aerosolize the fuel.... Also, I am not sure what was done with the
distributor
when all the vacuum lines were removed. I have no idea if anything should be
done with
it other than resetting the ignition timing to "correct" at idle with the
absent vacuum.
I am giving sincere consideration to getting some HS6 or early ZS carbs.
I also had a problem with the synchronization of the carbs due to the linkage
design.
I had to change the design, but now the throttle tip-in is pretty abrupt. At
least
the carbs are synched! They had never been so since the webers were installed
in 1986!

Subject: Repeat request ... get your up too!
To any and all proud owner's of DCOE or DGV breathing little monsters...
Anyone out there using Weber's side drafts or DGV's in particular?
The photo page is up and running and will be updated as the info comes in.
When you send a photo, please include your jetting info, a short description
of any engine mods, and an e-mail or web site link you'd like added to the
image.
The prime purpose of this page is to present state of tune and jetting
information for
the DCOE and DGV series of carburetors.
Even if you don't have the jetting info, send your photos and any mods. info
(current engine
configuration, hop-ups) and we'll see what we can do to get it published.
If you have the info on your jet settings PLEASE include that info.
Don't forget to identify the model, years, displacement of the engine.
You can take a look at the page at
http://www.teglerizer.com/dcoe/dcoepictures.htm
(the full research...as yet not web published... may be heading for a printed
book.
So get your photos included now!)
