    How much compression can I get away with on my ET 967

    Bringing this thread back, my 967 is at 165, what psi are the pump gas domes supposed to be at? I'm guessing I should look at doing a top end here soon??

    Carb Theory & Practice

    Well I found this in the manual and decided to raise pop off from 20psi to 26, not sure why but the levers are dead flush with carb body, and with a 2.0 seat and a 115gr spring I ended up at 26 dead even between the carbs, even checked the pop off tester for accuracy

    Carb Theory & Practice

    Well last summer I replaced the vf3 reed cages with new ones for this same issue and it ran exactly the same as before, just send like no matter what I do I can't get the thing to idle worth a damn, but I haven't ever changed the pop off throughout all of this so I'm wondering if the pop off...

    Carb Theory & Practice

    Hi I was just reading up on this article, and I'm in the process of raising pop off pressure I think, waiting on parts to arrive tomorrow... Anyways I have a et967, dual novi 48, pfp ran dry, and have tested fuel pressure and ended up with a 110 jet to get to the 1.5psi at idle, I'm guessing the...

    ET 967 Tuning Thread

    Would highly recommend buy main jet sizes 60 70 80 90 drilling out the restrictor holes in the carb and getting a low pressure fuel gauge on the return line... I had issues with my carbs in my 967 both the 46s then the Novi 48s found fuel pressure was at 2.5 psi at idle it was so rough at idle...

    Check fuel pressure... The larger engines seem to have more vacuum, i even up with i think a 90 main jet in my return line, you will need to drill out the restrictor in your oem 46s if it's not already done, want i think 1.5 psi, smaller jet higher psi, larger jet lower psi

    Prop recommendations...

    Hmm I'm considering dropping mine from a 150mm 10/15 skat to a 8/14 this next year, recently went from dual 46mm to dual 48 Novi so spent most my time getting them tuned in right this past few months

    Prop recommendations...

    What did you end up figuring out? I have the same setup basically with a 150mm Maxx pump, 88mm reduction nozzle, and a 10/15 prop, also what jetting are you running in the Novi? I have a 2.3 needle/seat at 21psi 120 pilot and 125 main

    ET 967 Tuning Thread

    Finally got the rough choppy idle figured out, i had dual 46 on it without the restrictors being drilled out and it idled super rough, put the Novi 48s with a 60 restrictor did the same thing, ended up switching restrictor to a 70 and it was better, now I'm at a 80 and it idles like a stock...
