This video saved me so much time. I’m new to carburetor’s and have a Weber on my CJ7. Now I know how to tune it up quickly. Thank you sir!

I just found out today that the "tiny" nuts you mentioned (4:46) are 5/16 JIS nuts. This is a Japanese standard. The nut heads are 7/16 instead of the SAE standard of 1/2". The 4.2L carb mount is so tight in the stud area that SAE 5/16 nuts are almost imposable to get on using 1/2 wrenches or sockets. Thanks for the video!

Holley and Weber got together in the '70s and built the 5210 series carbs which were very similar and they were used on GM and Ford four cylinder engines. I loved those things back then.

32/36 will solve issues on so many different vehicles. I love this carberator. With proper conversion plates I can find no faults with these units. Easily jetted and performance tuned.

the weber carburetor is the way to go , i have the 38/38 on my 1990 jeep yj with the 258 engine and since i did the weber carburetor swap i have no problems

Very cool! If I'm not mistaken, Weber makes carbs for the classic Porsches too. So that's really awesome. 👍

Thankyou , My holley has the same problem and after seeing this video I Just ordered the same Weber ! Thanks from the Netherlands

Excellent video! You help me solve my Jeep J10 4.2L 1974 problem!

Thanks man! This video pointed me in the right direction on my sons' 1983 Jeep Scrambler 258 two barreled carburetor. The guy we bought it from did a bad job at the conversion and hookups. It's been a while since my 80s hotrod days...

Those Weber 32-36 carbs are great. I’ve used them on several of my cars over the years. Took care of flat spots, idling issues and always better mpg! BTW the 32/36 is the diameter in mm of the two barrels.

I just put a 38 on my 78 CJ7. Still working to get the idle correct. Put a 32 36 on a 86 Mazda Pickup. Worked perfectly.

Great video man. Thank you

I just got the same kit for my ‘88 YJ in the mail today. I’m ready to be done with the carter. May need you to come help me slap it on. You made it look pretty easy.

I have the same carb on a 258 ci. runs great, you can get roller bearings for the cross shafts so they don't wear the casting oblong. Match this with a D.U.I. distributor and wow, just too cool.

Great job, and Thank you for this video it is going to help me a lot. You don’t happen to have similar for the Msi distributor, and aftermarket tachometer. I Just ordered my Weber redline kit and crt msi kit. Looking for a tach that will work well with the setup. I am also trying to find information on what to do with the existing components wiring and Vacume lines when they are no longer in use. What needs to stay hooked up for the truck to run and what can be removed to clean up the engine bay.

This same weber has been on my 81 cj5 almost 2 years now, it's great! The carter bbd was junk from the get-go, can't hate amc, they were doing the best they could with extreme new emissions standards of the time. Got rid of a ton of vacuum lines and junk. Also, bbd's are rarely rebuildable. it only takes a worn throttle shaft to make it junk from my experience.

The adapter for the 32 36 often has an issue of coming loose and causing a vacuum leak. I used sealant between the gasket/ intake/ adapter. Also thread lock on screws and bolts.

Great video and commentary. My question about the throttle linkage. I have an 81 CJ7 and I’m having trouble with the stiff arm adjustable rod that goes down to the accelerator. Mine is a cable and I’m interested to see where you clipped the rod to the gas pedal

Great video...I am currently rebuilding a 85 cj7...down to final phase and the crappy carb is the same one you removed...I will be going to the weber 38 and you made it look pretty easy...hey where did you get the blue plug wires...can't find the right ones for the jeep...great job thanks

how did you end up routing your PCV? I have a weber that I just rebuilt and retuned. Also, bhich ports on the weber did you cap and which did you use?

Ford 5150 works well also. But I was able to get a weber 38/38 and havent installed yet. Oh you will need to get a regulator as the fuel psi is much lower than a regular carb.

Great video Prague. Question. can I run this carb permantly with the crankcase vent plugged like yours was when then video ended? Also, my mounting plate does not have a threaded port for the PCV valve. Is this a vacuum issue? I have seen guys with the 258 just throw a filter into the pcv hole on top the valve cover and call it a day. Is this ok?

So I have just gone installing the Weber carb on my 1980 CJ7 and having the most difficult time figuring out how the throttle linkage is connected to the carb .... think I forgot to take photographs before I took it apart. Do you by any chance have a video of where the original linkage is attached/installed and how its integrated with the new Weber linkage? Thanks in advance!

Fantastic video! Thanks so much. Did you use a pressure regulator?

I would like to put one on my F head 134 CJ3B if possible

its so odd dodge used that same bolt pattern i know as far back as 1966 because my 1966 D500 has that same bolt pattern i ordered one of the amazon Chinese copys and so far works great

Off subject but did you have any issues with the HEI gear causing wear on your cam gear on the 258?

I bought a 1990 yj with the Webber already in it but I think it was a hack job. Studs missing, etc. I have 2 pcv valves on the valve cover as well. What are your 2 connected to ??? I might just buy a new carb and start from the beginning

Not having to build the linkage is the difference of a weber 32/36 & a weber ( red line) 32/36. Price difference

What's the jetting in that carb?

So, you did not/have not used a fuel regulator with this?

I installed one on my 80 MGB runs superior to the SU carbs

What year cj7 is your beast.

where does the distrubuter advance plug in?

Thanks for sharing. Currently doing this on my '80 because the Carter is a piece of crap!

The only problem is that kit makes you mount your carb backwards with stupid linkage

I thought Weber went out of business?

Weber's are CRAP! Use the Motorcraft 2100 or Autolite 2100 2 brrl and you will be amazed! By the time the Weber opens the 2 bbl. it is time to shift.. Horrible carb.
