True Classic
I have been having some issues running my engine with the 36 DCNVA carburetor. The engine is a very overwarmed 1300 with all the goodies in my signature. The car accelerates and drives fine expect when at light throttle, city cruising which is what I normally do around here. The car leans out to the point of wanting to die. I have an air fuel meter so 99% certain its turning lean.
I can drive fine and get anywhere I need to by very slight twitches of the accel pedal up or down. If held constant it just creeps up to 20+ (super lean) within about 5 seconds. Applying gas at over 20+ to correct back to 12-14 A:F it will buck once, probably from nearly dying.
My thoughts are obviously somewhere between the

My thoughts are obviously somewhere between the
- air jet, emulsion tube, fuel jet (175, F36, 150 respectively)
- if full accel is good (near/full WOT) would the air-fuel jet combo could be right and the emulsion tube hole combinations be off? more holes/larger holes at the bottom? or low vacuum needs smaller top holes for less air to pull through?
- Somewhere on the vacuum system shown on page 18 of the PDF: Weber Tuning Manual
- Does the DCNVA (DCNF) have this circuit? there is a vacuum line #12 to the "Dispositivo sgolfamento" (deflection device?) #23 via this website:

- Float? possibly too low resulting in more air at mild vacuum (in combination of the air, emul, fuel jets). This carb is rather difficult to pull apart to check float. There are two linkages on this that are not on the DCNF I believe that block make this a 3-4 hands process.
- Would the center hole through the base cause this and phenolic spacer? The hole is there, uncertain how well its aligned but would prefer not to interrupt the seal if I can avoid it.
