N20Jeep Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 ive got a demon 750 on my engine, and i cannot seem to get this thing to stop running rich. it is constantly fouling out plugs. and whenever i do get it running smoothly it only last a few days, then begins to run like crap again. any hints on tuning these?

grumpyvette Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) first step is verifying the fuel pressure is in the 4-5.5 psi range and the floats are correctly adjusted, a RETURN STYLE fuel pressure regulator with a byepass line back to the tank is almost MANDATORY for maintaining consistant fuel pressure, and having a gauge to check/verify not guessing IS MANDATORY Edited March 14, 2009 by grumpyvette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyvette Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) 7-9 psi will almost always overcome the needle & seat and constantly flood the carb, that is probably the source of your major problem, install a RETURN STYLE fuel pressure regulator, and a line back to the tank or at least back to a TEE thats located befort the pump intake point http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category_10001_10002_10019_-1_10267?sendroicid=bbef8492-2d00-41d6-b158-38db0de2603c&sendroiad=3824188001&sendroikwd=Fuel+Line&gclid=CNrLsez3opkCFQudnAodtC_cpQ these cheap ones, that are dead head style seldom work well http://www.jegs.com/p/Holley/745059/10002/-1 much better http://www.jegs.com/i/Mallory/650/4307M/10002/-1 http://www.jegs.com/InstallationInstructions/600/650/650-4307M.pdf Edited March 14, 2009 by grumpyvette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
