Stromberg tuning - Air-fuel meter and Dyno

Post by 6PAK72 » Sun Dec 14, 2008 8:19 pm

We're experiencing some difficulty in peaking the carb tuning and balance on the TR6. The Strombergs really aren't that hard to tune if you have the tools - just 2 screws. We have the manual, just need the tools, time, and a thoughtful professional.

We're looking for a referral to a shop who knows how to use an air-fuel meter and has a dyno.

Thanks a lot,

Liz and Jeff

You could try Mario @ VSR, he's not far from you.

I know a good person to do the dyno work, but he would just want the engine - not the whole car. ( I forget the term, is it a chassis dyno that runs the engine on a test stand? ).

KTR sends their tough cases out to him...
