RPM drop while on Stop
Running an APD Max Speed carb with built in stop and ive noticed on my logger that the car will drop roughly 100 to 120 RPMs while on the stop. Is this normal or has anyone else had this issue.

Re: RPM drop while on Stop
Max speed a great piece but very finicky imo..
Are you running a 02? |

Re: RPM drop while on Stop
Does the RPM drop coincide with the shift?

It doesn't appear to coincide with the shift.

Until you get the O2s I’d play it safe and start by giving it more fuel and see what it does. If it gets worse go down a few sizes from what’s in there now. For the most part the front jets control what its doing on the stop then you tune the restrictors behind the power valve and rear jets for down track. |

Re: RPM drop while on Stop
What kind of car are we talking about??.. my 27 Roadster has a torsion bar front end, and when it touches down when the stop comes on, it unsettles the floats, and causes an RPM drop similar to yours.. we have tried just about everything to improve it, even putting jet extensions on the front jets.. helped, but not a real fix.. the only thing seems to work for me, is increasing the cruise RPM.. but then you have to add numbers to the timer.. not always a good thing, and can affect MPH if to many numbers are added..
You can also head to left field, and fiddle with the timers and shift points, but don't get lost out there.. The up side is that I can over-lay my graphs, and they are almost identical run to run.. SOOOOO, I dial it, and let go of the button.. |
