I have a 3 rib 002 out of a 74 bus. Need to replace one of the differential bearings. Cant find any videos showing that process, any insights? Can I do it with transmission installed?
Somewhat germane to this topic,....I saw this comment I saw on a vid here and elsewhere that I can't link. " FWIW, the CSO of the company I previously worked for (in the top 10 of largest agricultural companies worldwide) shared with me a single slide from the deck he presented to the Board which showed 44.3% of all internet traffic in '23 was bots and malicious bots outnumbered the good bots (indexing, etc.) 2:1. I think its fair to say that comment sections on popular sites follow a similar trend, then add those trying to "poison the well" and it is not out of the question to think a minimum of 45% of online comments are not organic. Could be higher or lower depending on the reach of individual sites, but its important to understand a substantial minority of what we see online is controlled." plausible, no?
Hi Vic, I’m 58, I’ve seen a lot change from technological advancement in my lifetime. I’m not sure where artificial intelligence is going in the next few years. But there will be some good and some bad as it has been with all other technologies. But one thing is certain. We can’t stop it, and our fate is our fate. Personally I despise AI. It makes people lazy, correction it makes people lazier. And in its early stage right now I find it annoying when TH-camrs use it to make videos. But the fact that it can translate language is amazing. Undoubtedly technology will be the downfall of the human race. As far surviving 2030. A mad man pushing the button is more likely to happen in the next 5 years than AI taking over the planet.
I often have a problem that when the engine is warmed up and I turn it off, fuel immediately starts leaking through the emulsion tubes into the throat (barrels). It is then very difficult to start the engine.
@@marcingowczynski you need new needle and seats. Set your float levels. Carb kits are cheap. That should be it. If it still happens check your fuel pressure. It should be 4-6 psi.
@@vicferrarisgarage Thank you for your reply. I use the standard original pump. The pressure is ok. I wonder if I shouldn't lower the float more than the manual recommends.
This was really helpful. I just got my first vehicle with carbs (air cooled bug), and I'm trying to learn the inner workings. I understand what you are saying about the air/fuel volume screw.... BUT if air/fuel is mixed at the idle jet, then how does the volume screw change the ratio of air and fuel to make it run richer or leaner? Said another way - If the volume screw just increases volume, but does not affect the ratio, how are we getting a richer or leaner mixture??
After doing some research I've learned that the unit goes into fail safe mode if not connected to a controller. Install the controller for that unit and that should help even without wheel sensors.
I'm confused. Is it supposed to be in fail safe mode normally or is that a condition. Would it work correctly if not in fail safe mode if that's possible?
@@crazytestpilot9434 if it is not talking to the computer in the car, then it will just run in fail safe mode, which is to get you to the dealership that works works fine for 90% of cars, but if you’re going to be turning fast as in drifting or racing, it’s not going to work good because it is not fast enough and it will actually hold you back from turning.
@@crazytestpilot9434 check some other videos. It’s been a few yrs there may be some update mods for these units to make them work without the main computer
You seem to know a ton about these carbs! Mine is sometimes leaking fuel from the central venturi stack when it sits off. Do you think think this could happen due to an improperly adjusted float? What else could cause something like this? Thank you
..my right carb is popping. Gonna try your method, but i dont want to take the carb out. Hoping to leave it bolted in.. i have a 69 baywindow,… do u for-see any problem, or do u have any tips to cleaning out the carb while on the engine. Thanks
Why can't they just make the carburetor with the correct jets to start with? There should be only one jet size that will attain the correct fuel to air ratio for a given air flow rate. Not counting air density or cold starts which will require more or less fuel. Your engine size shouldn't really matter because the jets are matched to the air flow rate through the carburetor. Also fuel viscosity will play a role in jet size but it should be close to the perfect size for a given air flow rate.
I just did a rebuild on a weber 40 idf and the thing will not ideal and only stay running with the accelerator pump sprays . After this video I believe I know where the issue is cuz my ideal jets was clean when I removed them . Gonna be taking carby off again . Thanks for the detailed info .
One of the best ways to combat these issues is to run a fine mesh Pre-filter in addition to a quality air filter that is supple enough to make a good seal. It’s sad people often care more about the looks of carbs than having them function properly.
Did you use a rivet?
Great video. Helped me understand what is going on and fixed my issues. Thanks for posting.
Great idea! Many thanks! 🚂

Great video. I was struggling with the dismantle. Just went through the process with you. Many thanks for uploading. All the best
@@search4orlife awesome hope it works out great.

I like your explanation I wish you switch pens to a sharpie and drew arrows of air and fuel flows Physically on the carburetor

Deff its time😂only time will tell🙀no only the distributer knows when it’s time😅😮
Yup that just happened😂😂
🤷♂️how old this is but piston is moter 1 or 2 or a/b -/+ is power Int 1/a works moter 1/a Just requires switch to Int 1 is up & int2 is down😂😂
You Never did a VW gearbox, because you work like a beginner. Sorry, but repair Ford. May be you understand the technic.

What did he soak it into?
Wow , thanks for this great reveal of this circuit , Vic !
Love your idea!!!! Thank you!

For a 2161cc stroker engine, which valve setting would u recommend?
I run my 2176 at 7. 😊

I always pull them. It always bites me later if I don’t. Thanks 😊
Nice overview. Good information on a poor quality carburator. Thanks.
Great job thinking outside of the box and keeping it theme related at the same time.

what about the cooling fans?
Thank you
AWESOME IDEA
My Weber 40's are doing the pop. Would it be possible to use a slight vacuum and reverse clean thru the key straw?

Where can I find that roof cover??
Very good.
what are your thoughts on empi oil cooler system that returns to front oil relief
😂
So where can I see your kit. Need things.
Thanks I finally understand the idle circuit! I hope God is blessing you!
I shat myself
Good thinking 🤔
the problem is idf try IDAs u might learn something good
Awesome! Thank you Vic.
Can anyone give a rough estimate of what it costs to have a 3 Rib gone through? Aside from any damage found of course...
