How do you adjust a Edelbrock carburetor to get better fuel mileage?
First, you need to find an exhaust gas analyzer and find out what the mixture is when you're running down the road. If you're running rich (too much hydrocarbon in the exhaust) try putting a smaller set of jets in. Be careful, it's easy to go too far and if you do that you'll burn valves and possibly a piston.Repeat the process until you get a good mixture, then adjust the idle mix.
How do you use carburetor cleaner?
I like to spray carb cleaner on a lint free rag to clean out most of the intake first but you can spray some inside just try to get most of it out if you sprayed alot inside wait a few minutes so it can evaporate before you start your car just incase it ignites.OTMAN Carburetor cleaner is designed to remove heavy varnish and gunk from the inside and outside of a vehicle's carburetor. If the carburetor is not cleaned periodically, it will begin to affect the vehicle's mileage and performance. The carb should be cleaned a couple of times a year to prevent buildup and keep the engine running smooth.Remove the air cleaner unit from the engine by unscrewing the wing nut. You might need pliers to turn the wing nut if it is very tight.Vacuum off the top of the engine area to prevent dirt and debris from being sucked into the engine while the air cleaner is not in place.Spray the entire carburetor inside and out with carburetor cleaner to loosen the gunk and varnish. Use shop rags to wipe up any heavy grease and gunk loosened by the carb cleaner.Start the vehicle. With the vehicle running, spray carburetor cleaner down the throat of the carburetor and around the outside. The engine will pick up a bit as the vehicle burns the carburetor cleaner. Wait a few minutes and shut off the engine.Spray the outside and inside of the carburetor again heavily. Start the vehicle again and spray more carb cleaner around the outside and inside while the engine is running.Spray the entire air cleaner inside and out with carburetor cleaner. Wipe the air cleaner dry with shop towels. Install a new air filter element and re-install the air cleaner unit onto the carburetor.
What are the directions to adjust the timing on a 2000 Saturn?
The timing is controlled by the vehicle's computer. There is no need to adjust it during normal maintenance. I don't believe that it is possible to adjust the timing on that vehicle. I think that it was set and sealed at time of manufacture. Safest thing is to check with the dealer.
