1963 Chev Corvair Won't Start - Engine

Question: Hi, Mi brother decided to adjust the iddle mixture screws without knowing how to do it. The car does not start now. I know the right position for the mixture screws is 1 1/2 to 2 turns from where they set. I recently learned that the carburators need to be syncronize now. I know what kind of tool to use for that purpose, but I don't know what the right syncronization should be and how to read/use the syncronizer device. Can you Please Help me with this matter? Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Best regards, Miguel Mendez 3717 North Ravenswood Avenue Suite 234 Chicago, Illinois 60613 773.248.2792

Technican: Hi; Synchronizing carburetors is kind of tricky. What you are reading on the gauge is the amount of air getting into the carb. Depending on your timing settings this will change. The best way I have done this is to start at middle level on the gauge " depends what kind of synchronizer you have". Then try that if it starts sputtering then you would decrease the amount of air. If it starts pinging then you would increase the amount of air. Once you have it to where it is running right, then right down the numbers so you can relate back to them. Another thing to do is make sure that after you adjust both of them recheck them. This is really more time consuming then it is hard. .
