hi i was just wandering if someone could explain to me why my engine bogs down as soon as the secondary starts to open for few seconds then picks up fine?

i have tried size 135 and 150 jets in the secondary but dosnt change much so i left in the 150 for better highend power.

Thanks!

This is generally not a jetting problem, but usually caused by fitting the wrong size carburetor.

Are you using Hitachi DCG306? Which one?

hahaha vtec.

yes its a stock hitachi carburetor i was just testing to see if it was the secodarys by sticky taping a 5 cent coin onto the mecanical weight to make it open up slower and it made the bogging alot less but not 100%.

thanks

Have you checked your fuel pressure? Maybe pushing fuel past the needle somehow?

Put the bigger jet in the primary. I had the same problem. I have 190 in primary 's and 160 in the secondary's. My car bogged off the start and then picked up. Solved it by putting the bigger jets in the primarys. I run two carbs.
