i have a lil prob
i have way too much gas entering my 89 accords carb do any of u have a service manual that shows how to lean out a carb?
also i need to know how long i have to replace a catilityc converter before i blow my engine
my looser bro told me to bust it out and its caused nothin but probs since

 

you getting flooded with gasoline when you at idle or what?

on some car there's a little adjustment screw on the carb.
I never work on one tho', at lease not a honda carb.

 

Have you checked the float levels? If you don't have one, get a manual and check the procedure. It boils down to:
1) Park the car in a level place
2) pull the covers for the float sight glass(es)
3) there is a mark on each glass indicating where the gas level should be
4) if it's high, there is a screw adjustment for each float (varies per carb)

You NEVER should have messed with the converter

 

i havent worked on a carb either and dont want to until i kno wat to do and no i cant seen to see any windows into float chamber

 

80% of the time is the seat is jammed or the needle not sitting right.

Once you work on a carb., you will just thanks whoever come out with EFI

 

Yeah, it's easy for the float valve to stick open, float bowl overfills & spills through the vent into the throat.

Back in the day... (guess I'm getting old). When injection was becoming popular everybody said "now you'll never be able to work on your cars again because injection is so complicated"...

 

the old venturi, chock, main jet neeldle and float assembly, accelerator pump all in one little black plastic box filled with yellow jelly

 

it floods all the time always too much gas
and now it vibreates and not have any power

</TD></TR></TABLE>What you need is a repair manual for your car. I've done it many times on a Hitachi DAF328 but that was a '72 Datsun. Each carb is different.

It's not about turning a screw. It's about taking the carb apart, cleaning it, & putting some new parts in.

 

yea apperntkly im wrong its a throttle body carb and there is no float jus and injector inthe throat if that helps guys

 

ok another step in the right direction
wat about my o2 sensor could that cause simaler probs?

That means it has a carburator. Three problems come to mind to cause to much fuel to be metered.

A bad float.
needle valve
choke pull-off diaphram
