K jet mixture adjust using dwell etc 200


I have done this on both systems (the 240's in my signature line) but not recently.

I do recall they are very similar. The K-Jet was no more difficult than the LH.

Except the rubber boot on the K-Jet can be a pain to get back on correctly. There is a trick but I don't remember what it is at the moment.*

The only other thing that comes to mind is one of the three nuts for the throttle body is a bit tedious. The one to the inside, I believe. I think I used a box end and could only turn it about 1/8 turn at a time.

Take notes. Take a picture. Draw a diagram. Whatever. There's not that much stuff to disconnect/reconnect.

Use a new gasket, obviously.

When I did the K-Jet car the cleaning consisted of no more than wiping it with a rag and some carb cleaner. It was just a slight film of carbon that probably was not affecting anything for the worse.

The LH car had a lot more miles on it and there was definitely a gunky, crusty build up. I forget what solvent I used but it cleaned up fairly easily.

Notice who asked about it.

It may not be as easy as it sounds but I believe it works. Be careful not to tear the boot at the seam.
