In theory, when all cylinders run at the same temperature and the same vacuum, they should also have the same mixture. Any objections to this?
I can see the procedure developing like this:
- Run the engine nice and warm, drive a lap around town.
- Double check balance of carbs with 4-channel CarbTune
- Let it idle with the bonnet open for a few minutes, measure temp of header pipes about 2" from head.
- adjust idle mix until all cylinders are as close as possible.
The time constant of the temperature change is a large unknown here, I really don't know how long it will take from making a change till it will register consistently.
Do people have any thoughts on this? I am thinking this as a poor man's 4-channel EGT system.
