Those suck, but not in the way they should. ;) It's a major pain but it can be done. Ask someone with a similar setup what jetting they have etc. Jan |
you have the typical setup. This is why we do not recommend nor sell that
carb for that engine, it will always run like a bag-o-nails. I recommend dual carbs because you have no intake preheat, and no way to add it. John Aircooled.Net Inc.

True. Even with proper intake preheat, this type of carburator was never intended to work with this type of intake manifold. It needs a SHORT, hot manifold, with a plenum chamber immediately under the carburator where the intake mixture first has room to collect, and then get sucked into the equal lenght (optimally) individual intake pipes. Everything about that setup is wrong for the Boxer engine. Something like this HAS been done on race engines, and they are jetted WAY rich. *huge* main jets and it works pretty well at high rpms.
