alloy inlet manifold

Post by madaboutcherry »

to heat, or not to heat, that is the question?
if so, what is the best way to plumb it in? if you run it inline with the heater tap, when you turn the heater off (a rare thing) it won,t work, surely.

Heat it, carburettor freezing can be very thrilling. It tends to only happen at highway speed, but you don't know about it until you run up behind something slow.

On my car the heater tap is pretty flaky, 'off' means less flow, not no flow.
