I saw a post on PP where someone was modifying a 81-83 FD to replicate the early Carerra FD which seems to be a jewel.
Charlie, do you know something about this? My car is still running lean in mid range and load. I checked the pressures last night. I lowered the system pressure a little by taking out some washers. This did lower the control pressure about 1psi. It had some positive effects but not enough. I saw a post there about being able to adjust the warm control pressure with a little screw inside the Control pressure regulator as well. Is this much different than adjusting the mixture screw? I really need to change the curve of the fuel mixture from rich at idle and then lean at midrange and rich at high rpm's. It needs to be richer in the middle. I'm afraid if I lower the control pressure it will make it richer across the board. This will be way too rich at idle. Has anyone been here before?
