The same thing happens at 1/8" Any lifting of the air piston causes the RPM to drop. The only difference is, that 1/4" almost kills it. Lifting only 1/8" causes a big dip, but doesn't kill the engin

Dave, I respectfully disagree with you about the lift-the-piston technique for ZS carbs. I believe that the technique WILL work. The carbs do not know what sort of profile is on the needle. Additiona

Tony, I disagree with your disagreement. Lifting the piston slightly leans the mixture, due to lowering the air velocity through the venturi (which weakens the Bernoulli effect and so draws less fue

Dave Massey is very likely on the money with the bypass valve being the problem. I was working on my friend's TR7 (with similar carbs) and had problems with the idle being too fast. He told me about

Ok, Dave, now I'm going to disagree with you. The SU design was every bit capable of being "cleaned up" as the ZS was, the switch to ZS carbs was for economic reasons, not engineering ones. Comparin

Yes, ZS's run fine when functioning properly, but their complexity gives more opportunity to malfunction. personally, I would not say that ZS carbs are superior. Both SU and ZS use a needle to fine t
