Re: Q-jet tune-up video
Man O Man, That Guy is good. I estimate he increased air flow to about 1132 CFM with fuel flow to match. Be sure to check back tomorrow when he installs and test the mods.
Plus, he openly gives out this info for no charge. This Builder is very Civic minded.

Re: Q-jet tune-up video
also, I always suspected the secondary vacuum pull was not needed and is possibly a source of bogging.

Re: Q-jet tune-up video
The only thig I can see he can improve on is to use a larger sledge hammer so he can reduce the amount of hits to remove the fuel feed. Other than that he is spot on!!!!!

It's a good thing that he removed his beer can from his bench top before he started with his adjustments.........
