Re: 86 civic DX HB 5spd carbed w/1.5 EW1 engine

No, was too busy creating and building the shaft extension to do the pix thing. If it is usefull I could do a drawing, but then I'd have to figure out how to get it to you.
Continuing on, the next problem to solve is carburation. The '86 Civic CVCC IM was ported using the IM gasket as a guide and a power drill with a ($3.19) rotary file. A hardwood 1/2" dowel was then jammed into the area where the CVCC port is under the carb and was cut-off. Then the rubber/metal carb insulator.the dowel and part of the manifold was ported to have all three carb throats going into a common area. The carb was then devaced "as per Eldo" and the results are only "fair". I need some good advice on tuning-up this system, so what say you!
