Subject:Weber carb jetting

To the List,

I was wondering if anybody knows the correct primary and secondary jet
sizes for a Weber DFAV to run on a 1.7 liter engine.  I have finished
the rebuild and can't seem to get the engine tuned correctely.  When
the timing is set correctly for the 009 distributor(7.5 degrees
BTDC), I cant get the idle speed to come below 1500rpm without totally
leaning the idle mixture down util the engine almost dies.  The jets
that are in the Weber DVAV are 60 for the primary and 50 for the
secondary.  The primary may be a 50, but it was hard to read the first
letter on the jet.

Thanks,

Aaron
