- Part 1 of 2
A lot of videos are long and provide too much information or are cut short on Holley carbs. I did my best to create a short Holley carb tuning series for my fellow Holley carb guys. Hope it helps and please subscribe!
I cover the fallowing:
Holley float adjustment
accelerator pump adjustment
Power valve choice
idle air adjustment screw
idle adjustmant
holley squirters
Holley Jets
Holley cam assortment - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Probably the best 2 Holley carburetor videos. A great amount of detail and the example runs at the end of part 2 were genius.
Thanks much appreciated
Great video brother! Thank you for your help in calibrating my 4150! Very informative. Love how your car set off other alarms.
I enjoyed that and I don't even know much about carburetors. It was a bit advanced for me but probably just the right speed for someone who has such a carburetor. I see the benefits of liquid courage.
Very great and informative video. I have a ton to learn about the older motors. Just got myself setup in a 1987 F350 with a 460 gas hawg of a welding rig! I definitely appreciate your video.
Really informative, well presented, and clear. I rely on you guys to help me tune my car, as here in the UK help is sketchy. Now I finally understand how to get the most from my individual set up. I have a 454 BBC Edelbrock Performer heads, and intake, plus loads of nice internal bits and MSD ignition, but my car still lacked punch , now I have it sorted, thanks. I notice you have Nos, I think I will do the same next, so I will see if you have a video on this, cheers Dude :)
Damn man! Great job, I've always struggled with setting a carb and this has helped a lot.
most informative video i have seen. i love the way this guy breaks shit down for people like my self. without all the unnecessary tech B.S. well done thank you for a great vid.
Been watching a few of your videos I’m liking it,I subscribe.Thank you so much for the info.Rebuilding my 68 Camaro and your videos are coming in handy.Thanks for info.Cross my fingers and hope I don’t blow something up.....again 👀
Great video. I've got vacuum secondaries, hopefully the second video explains more
This is an awesome video, just starting to tune my HP 4150.
Thank you for this lesson! Much respect
I had a old timer show me about 35 years ago how to set those floats exactly perfect front and back before you ever put the carb on the motor. Only need a couple readily available items to do it.
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS! PLEASE KEEP MAKING VIDEOS!!! SUBSCRIBED!
Nice video explaining Holley carbs
This is a fantastic video! I have been having issues with hard launch/engine shut off for a couple of months now. I shock the tires and my Buick pulls HARD all the way UNTIL I lift my foot off the gas pedal ... then the motor shuts off. I don't know if it's getting too much or not enough fuel. I had fuel pressure regulator installed two weeks ago, and it still happens. I am going to use this video as guidance, and adjust my Holley 850 myself. I really appreciate this video. 👍👍
it takes at least 6 weeks for FPR to start working with unleaded fuel
Nice videos Tyler. Thanks for the instructions and tips. Most all videos where music is involved, totally suck. Not these, nice tunes!
I am binging your videos i can’t wait to get back to my truck!

Be sure to check that one out I have learned a good bit more over the years.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
damn good video... im just getting into holleys. ive heard all that you said for years but thanks for showing it... im starting with the 780 cfm 3310 (because thats what came on my 70 chevelle) i actually bought the 02 sensor before the carb because ive seen people struggle with holleys for years... im a carter/edebrock guy (for driving) but that might change soon... GREAT VIDEO
Chris Craft Yes sir, I believe it's better to see what you're motor likes over the suggestions of others. Thanks for watching.
Lots of good info. Thank you.
For track and safty reasons you need two.
Return springs on the throtle
Amazing... cheers..... the beer is a must.... thanks for your help. subscribed and lookimg forward for more info.
what would you like to know more about? I'm not sure what video I should do next.
+TPV Productions you covered the fuel. I say move on to fire. distributor choice? MSD? points or HEI? just a thought.
This is the right amount information at the right speed
Thank you,motor sounds great..
Nice clean vids this will help me tune my Holley Double Pumper.
My squirters aren't squirting. at all. nothing. what's the first thing to check. it sat for a few months without being started up. Trying to get it running right for the summer. great video. best one I've found on TH-cam so far!
Pull the bowl and check the accelerator pump diaphragm for proper operation.
nice video!!! Thanks I love it!!!👍👍🏁
Starting to think my carb is missing parts haha good video
Great video! thanks!
Funny how that car alarm went off in the background when you were revving up.🤣🤣🤣

Nice Job...Thank you..
I learned with a vacuum gauge setting the air fuel long before there was O2 sensors
Awesome video. Thanks for the help.
Great video why is the smell so strong when my engine is running in the garage you can't stay inside long how do I adjust
best music and carb tuning video! thanks
Great video = Question. On a brand new engine, new Holley carb, is its a good idea to manually fill the bowls to start till the mechanical pump kicks in >\? Or jst crank till it gets fuel ?Thanks
You should mention when you have a flooding Holley just simply remove the top screw and adjusting nut with the needle and seat in your hand blow out the trash reinstall and set your float most likely you need a new filter or clean the fuel tank! I love Holley carburetors 1050 Domnator here!
And if that doesn't stop the flooding the rubber "O" ring on the needle/seat assembly has probably gone bad. Buy a new needle/seat because you will never find the proper size O-ring.
Can you give a update on what squirters and cams you used..
Why are your videos better than Holley's? Thanks for the info!
Once my car gets to operating temp it wants to die at the light, I've raised the idle to about 700 ram when in drive and it still wants to stall any thoughts? Thanks for the videos.
I have hestation when I go to the floor then it accept the gas when going wrong??
How is the "shake" calibrated? Got to love exact measurements.
So for off idle hesitation I should be looking at the cam or pump play with the squirter went up and down still rite off the hit hesitation happen then take off pull fine throw out the 1/4
I just got a brawler 750 and I adjusted the set screws and idle and air fuel ratio reads between 14 - 15 at idle 13 -14when accelerating and 10 -11 when I come off the throttle any idea why its getting rich?
So if anyone can help my carb had sight glass and do I adjust my floats till fuel is just under?
Nice video
power valve, idle mixture, jets: as low as you can go without power loss. pump shot: as small and as late as you can go without power loss. true?
thanks I got a holey
bawler. getting to much fault. I try your. ed vice.
you have those super nice lines running into your bowls all jacked up from shitty tightening jobs.
Also need to know what song that is.
I got a s ten 305 bult got a 750 double pumper put gasket on bottom of it air botton
Hi, can you tell me what the electrical add-on is on the passenger side of the carb(red edelbrock bracket) and the switch on the rear driver side of the carb
John Gross nitrous micro switch
Hey there i have a Ford f 150 truck 89 model 4x4 with a 5ltr winsor bottom end gt40 heads weiland intake stage 2 cam electric dizzy 2 in rise 600 holley square bore vacuum secondaries I have set the carb up with 65 main jets 6.5 power valve float level right ìt was running 70 main jets so I put in 65 main too. get some fuel economy due to everything been 50 ks away like a shopping center the secondary don't come in ùntil 100 ks or 3000 rpm it is a sterling 10. 25 lsd rear diff 411 gears and 33 inch tyres does that sound like the right setup for the motor it revs smooth and hard any input would be great if I go down to 63 main will ìt change anything on economy waý
Sounds like a nice truck, you should make a video of it running be cool to see her in action.
Great information!
question I have a 4150 Holley I don't know where to plug up my PCV valve because the Holley does not have valve for for it do I connect it to the manifold
great video
My carb doesn’t have the secondary pump
Hi I was wondering if you can add Farsi subtitle for me (Persian)(فارسي) if you don't mind it's a really helpful video I like him to see it and understand it you did a great job.
Do you hate wire looming ?
Great info as I run a 4150 dual feed on my '67 Cougar XR-7 GT. My question is : what brand & kind of intake do you have under that 4150. ?
Tony Stone "Weiand 7531 Team G"
thanks for the video..
my car is running really lean , the sparks plugs are blacken. What should I do first.
Black is rich not lean.
You said nothing about what o listen for or look for when you made your air idle adjustments. ??
If you view part 2 you will find your answer.
Curious why at idle you were ok with 15:1? Wouldn't you want it a little more like 12.1, slightly rich , then when you put it in drive it should go up to about 12.7 or so? Thanks? Just curious.
NA pump gas 12.5 area is for WOT / power runs. At idle there is no load even just cruising down the highway you want it around 14.0-14.5. If you're idling in the 12s it will load up the plugs over time and cause them to fail.
@@TPVPRO Thanks for quick reply! Ok, I have an O2 installed and just beginning my process of optimizing. I had 12.2 at idle and 12.7 in gear but have yet to drive it. The main thing you are saying to determine front jet size on holley 750 vac and even double pumpers is to do a LOAD , gear down to (auto) and do 2nd to 3rd gear WOT blast and monitor the A/F ... It's those results that one cares the most about? I went from 72 stock jet to 69 just because the idle was super rich to start, I had no idea that adjusting the mixture screws would make that much difference. I also tune at full operating temp 190F. Any advise would be great, I'll even report back my findings. Thank you !
If you don't believe in a vacuum gauge please explain how everyone set the air fuel before there was O2 sensors because they all used a vacuum gauge and it worked.
Great vid , I just picked up a Holley 600 DP DF in mint condition for 250 , was that a fair price ? Thanks
yes it is.
do a vid on how to trim a cable tie so it wont cut ya... and that wiring
Melt it with a lighter after trimming
I dont believe in choke i dont believe using air .....love this old school mech type....
So, my Holley double pump carb. If I slightly give it gas. It’s fine.
If I rev fast and hard, it sounds like it’s about to stall and then the rpm flies up...
Would that be due to my back squirter? How do I fix that? Do I just adjust my rear accelerator pump spring?
I got confused by the end of the video hahahaha
th-cam.com/video/YLPN9TOakgg/w-d-xo.html that video will help.
TPV Productions thank you!
Is there a way to tune the idle air without having a tach and getting it correct?
Just keep adjusting the idle mixture screws (keep both or all 4, if you have 4 corner idle, exactly the same) until you hear the engine sound the smoothest with the highest rpm. (if you don't have an rpm gauge)
If you want 800 rpm, and then after adjusting the mixture it climbs to 900, lower the idle back down to 800.
Adjust the mixture again, to see if you can get 850 out of it again.
Reset the idle back down to 800 once done.
You want highest smoothest idle, while keeping the mixture screws the same turns out.
@@jakefriesenjake thank you so much!
@@novafreak4144 that is if everything else is pretty much what it should be set to. If everything was stock and then you threw in the hugest cam you get get into it, you'll have other things or problems preventing you from even adjusting the mixture screws to do anything at all! Gotta fix that problem first
Love the porn movie sound track LOL, great vid brother...
Nice sound indeed "un petit kiss bertysolo''
My Holley DP wants me to smoke a laced blunt. Drives me nuts
Great video but skip the music next time 🙏🏻
Thumbs up
men that.s nice
drinkn coors lite iz like makn luv in a canoe f...n near water !
Muito bom valeu
Howd you beat oil pressure gauges bs
thanks
what are the micro switches for on the carb?
Kelsey Brothers , Nitrous
w.o.t switch? i plan on running a NOS brand power shot kit on my 4150 series. can i just use a push button inside the car?
Kelsey Brothers , you want it to spray at wide open throttle only and above 3000 rpm. Fuel and tune on N2o is critical. The NOS kit explains everything in detail.
come set mine up lol
Cory Browning If you live near DC I can.
+TPV Productions I wish I was closer. I'm in KY.
I'll probably send mine off to get coated and rebuilt or I'll rebuild myself. Apparently the guy before me used the wrong kit
idle air screw = idle mixture screw
I was ready to give you a chance untill I seen your wiring job Hacky looking
Mickey Mouse return spring set up.
spfldo Mickey Mouse is awesome!
thats a donald duck set up if i ever seen one ??
vacuum gauge would help
Hey do you have IG?
Great video could have done with out the music!!
holley recommends to set it up in gear
That is covered in video 2
Why are you running so much fuel pressure. 6 psi is plenty.
Go
He's only running 5 psi
Looks like a rat's nest in there.
Not impressed by the butcher job on the red inlet to the front bowl

I had to stop watching after you said air idle adjustment screws control fuel. Air idle adjustment screws on the side do not control fuel. If so they would be called fuel idle adjustment.
It does for idle, if your vehicle is idling with the screws all the way in you have a blown power valve.

Couldn't hang with the crap music. Cya
In the mean time your drunk butt burned your place down because of all the gas you let flow out all over the place.
Next time use a rag to catch the raw fuel!
Typical gym guy. Lol!
Shut the music off it ruined the vid
