Title: more bowl volume trick ?
Post by: Frank400 on May 14, 2015, 03:32:32 AM

    Just thinking out loud here.  On later models Qjets with the large black cup on the passenger side, could that area be used somehow as a way to enlarge the fuel bowl ?  Or is it already doing that ?

    I thought about this last night but have not opened one lately to take a look inside to see exactly if that could be possible or already having this "function" so to speak.

Increasing bowl volume is a complete waste of time and effort.  Best to keep the bowl full on hard runs with a superb fuel system, than to rely on bowl volume, same as with any other carburetor.....Cliff
