I've had my BVhead work done for a couple of years now and have been playing around with jetting (Mains and Air Correctors) only for my DCOE carbs and am very happy with the results but my car lacks consistency meaning it goes like a bat out of hell but not all the time as it seems like my plugs are fouling so I replace the plugs and it runs amazing again but I find I'm changing plugs every 100miles or so depending on wheter it is city or highway driving I'm mostly doing. I would like it to run optimum all the time without costing me money for plugs so often.
The machine shop that built my head and set it all up installed an O2 bung on my header since it never had one and he connected a wide band Air/fuel device to his laptop and set it up accordingly and I spoke to the guy who did the work and he said to bring it to him and he will give it a supertune which I have no idea how much will cost me or what it entails.
What I've tried.....
Without touching the air fuel screws on the carbs as I don't want to make things worse. I purchased a good range of both Main and Air Corrector jets and have tried various jetting and recently removed my MSD Blaster 2 ignition coil and re-installed the factory coil with resistor as I thought that might help. It runs just as good with the factory coil but now is backfiring more frequently. With the MSD coil it would hardly ever backfire.
I guess what my question after all this talking is are other dual carb owners out there buying Air/fuel gauges and do they work and are they easy to use and get good results. All I've ever been told is that you have to buy a wide band if you want any accurate results.
