this was a great video, you took us through the whole journey, you can imagine some people to edit all the fault finding and make out they know everything from the start. 10/10 for a great you tube video. fair play to you . and thank you
It does entertain me watching your vids, but to be honest like you say your learning , I didn’t realise me100 would run vvt mind so guess we are both learning I’m about to order AT power ITB and ME221 ECU and wiring for my st170 escort , I do hope it’s easyer a job than yours Lovely to see Cat smiling 😊
good to see a person not giving up and loosing his cool it takes a lot of trial and error when you don't have something to show you what you are doing wrong
Hey M, i would of given up long time and slapped on sides, but well done on the perfectly executed diagnostics. Admittingly there is nothing more satisfying than solving a problem and learning along the way. Top man.👍
Mate, your perseverance is admirable! So good t9 see you smiling after the fueling troubles. Can’t wait for the Dino session to see what Maude can do. 👍
Slide speed is another massive tuning factor on CVs too, even when just removing airboxes on bikes. The pump should stop when pressure is built. Another thing to think about is fuel foaming in the float bowls. Thry are normally supported with the airbox on a bike but they're flapping around on the inlet rubbers on your install. Why no O2 sensor? Would make your life much easier! It's hard to tell with fuelling sometimes.
Well done for sticking at that mate, the sense of satisfaction is amazing when you finally sort the fault rather than handed it over to someone else to fix it for you. Top marks matey 👌👍
Thanks mate! 👍 . . . . My new project will be getting a headlining early next year which I'm HOPING to 'hand over' to 'someone else'. . . . . Because I know how much you 'enjoyed' doing that Capri one! 😃 😃 😃
@@marcushayesford lol done the Capri and the blue Rs2000 headliner now. Let me know mate and we can do it together if you want🤷♂️👍 Patients is the name of the game bud 😉
As a quick set up on bikes we used to take the carb size eg.38mm then times it by 5 and use that as a quick set up for jet size. 38 x 5 = 190 example. And it will always be a little on the rich side to keep it safe. Used to work a treat . Good luck
I think that MOST of the negativity out there about bike carbs is because people arn't willing to be patient and learn. Hopefully 'Maude' will get a good result on the dyno. 👍
FairPlay mate never give up there is always away just got to find it can’t wait to see what happens on the rollers see the difference between the two set ups 👍
We can tell you are 100% committed in sorting this engine and tune sorted out. Seen Pinky is also coming on well with the mk1. Great work upto now. Hope I got his name right 😆
these seem to be cbr 600 carbs if not exactly the same look, i have them installed on my 87' lada 2105 , i put them on, adjusted them, gave the distributor proper advance lines, and advanced it a little bit and they worked flawlessly !! timing is key tho
Putting carbs on a bigger engine than they are jetted for usually results in lower pressure in the venturi and therefore high fuel delivery rates, it is quite normal to have to jet a bike down after fitting a big bore kit. I have no doubt these carbs will make good power with flawless delivery once dialed in. When you have learnt which to adjust them LoL! Also they dont like running without an air box because the air correction jets controlling the air flow into the diffuser tube will be seeing atmospheric pressure all the time instead of the reduced pressure that occurs in an air box when power is demanded.
Now that your a tuner, Marcus 😄, it might be worth investing in an afr gauge. Good safety investment. If you get a spare few O2 sensors and bungs, you can fit those to your other cars and just swap the gauge between them while tuning, as the gauge itself is the biggest expense. Good work bro. Love the never give up attitude
Good work Marcus. I had the same issue with bike carbs on my xflow but I didn’t have the persistence you have and swapped to Dellortos and now on Jenveys.
Hi Marcus when you where taking out the car needles you said the had a diaphragm on the back I noticed that around 9 minutes mark when you where looking at the needle I thought I seen some light through where the diaphragm fits if that isn’t sealed properly it would be drawing in to much air I apologise in advance if I am mistaken
I can defo see what you mean in the footage mate! 👍 Im HOPING its just an illusion with the light but I'll defo double check all the diaphragms before I go on the dyno. Thanks for pointing it out. 👍
@@marcushayesford that’s why we love the channel mate ! I’m sure you will have that thing back In Mexico in no time !!🤣🤣🤣🤣 have a great Christmas to you both
Why not get webers with fuel injection at Northampton Motorsport. No Air Filters? You may lose hp quickly if running in dusty conditions. K&N air filter or similar won't hurt engine output.....
You have the patience of a saint well done for sticking with it i would have launched them long ago..very interesting video you must have put a load of man hours into it mind and look after yourself relax and enjoy the holidays mind some time out to recharge….🏴👍🔩
marcus this is one of your best videos mate proper interesting and glad you have got a bit of a result you ever thought the car is suffering from fuel starvation ie need a big flow of petrol?
Brilliant vid. As for the dodgy Japanese screws you need some JIS! Get a set of ‘Japanese industrial standard’ screwdrivers it makes a world of difference and if your scratching your head as to what the f*#k am I talking about have a quick Google mate. Trust me on this one, you can’t beat screwing with some JIS👍
Hello love your videos.just a quick question I currently have a pinto engine head has been modified will the bike carbs be a good if so what jets do it need or is dcoe better?
Missed a few vids, what's the reason for bike carbs? whenever I think mk2 escort I think delortos or webbers with their big throttle bodies getting loads of air in
Glad you enjoy the videos mate! 👍 Im pretty sure there are brand new aftermarket stalks available nowadays for Mk2. I would say try Burton Power, Motorsport Tools and Car Builders Solutions. 👍
hello, i really don’t understand why you spent money in a good ecu and not in a good AFR gauge + wideband sensor like innovate or AEM ? you act like a blind in the dark for your carb setup…i know gunson spark it’s a good ish help for idle but not for a complete setup ! anyway, good chance for your project ! Yann from France…
You’r right I a wideband would be helpful BUT whenever I put a new (or used) engine in my car I take it straight to the dyno to have it professionally tuned anyway. All I was trying to do in this video is make sure that it actually pulls all the way through the rev range. My tuner is very busy so I had time to kill, so anything I can figure out before I get to the dyno will save me money at the dyno. 👍
100% actually get a notification for a new video over there. Don't ditch RUclips mirror the vids there too. BTW way I have zero interest in cars, but love your perseverance. Always a good watch.
Marcus, love your channel, down to earth in these mental times. None of my business buy you got any plans to make your beautiful girlfriend Cat your beautiful wife? :-)

Lovely to see Cat smiling 😊
good to see a person not giving up and loosing his cool it takes a lot of trial and error when you don't have something to show you what you are doing wrong
Perseverance is the best tool you can have in your kit when working with carbs, haha. Top notch!
Hey M, i would of given up long time and slapped on sides, but well done on the perfectly executed diagnostics. Admittingly there is nothing more satisfying than solving a problem and learning along the way. Top man.👍
Well done Marcus glad you got it sorted your certainly commited you will be an expert soon & have your own tuning shop
Massive fair play for not giving up! 👏 bring on the dyno lmao 👍
Thanks mate! 👍 I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet! 😃
Yay well done mate for chipping away at it anf getting a result can’t wait for the Dyno can’t wait to see it at its full potential 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😊😊😊😊
Mate, your perseverance is admirable! So good t9 see you smiling after the fueling troubles. Can’t wait for the Dino session to see what Maude can do. 👍
Roll on the 6th January mate! 👍 Fingers crossed for a good result! 🤞
Cracking Marcus. I think allot of us can relate to the elation of fixing a problem and the frustration of it being so bloody simple.
Good watch. Had bike carbs on my 1.8 zetec mk1. Worked very well, but now upgraded to jenvey tb's 👍
Love the Enthusiasm mate.
There has to be Negative people in the car world. It's what keeps the Positive people Going.
Keep up the good work.
Well done Marcus, hanging in there pays off and it's fun trying to fault find. Very rewarding when it's sorted
Well done mate 👍
Thanks mate! 👍
Interesting video, don’t have a clue about bike carbs but learnt abit here. Interesting to see what it’ll make on the dyno
I love your attitude with your fords. Don't give up. Keep at it again and again and you fix it good man

Wow what a journey you're on with these Carbs...but fair play buddy you've got there and I'm sooo looking forward to the dyno session 👍👍👍
Well done for not giving up. I would also upgrade the fuel pump to a better one
Plastic Bracket (Cable Tie) Love it 🥰🤣🤣,
Perseverance (yes I googled the spelling !!!) well done Marcus you always get things sorted 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Keep going pal, your getting there 👍
👍
Perseverance got you there, good on you for sharing the lows and the highs of the troubleshooting
Thanks for watching mate! 👍 Im happy to show the whole story and all my fails! 😃

We can tell you are 100% committed in sorting this engine and tune sorted out.
Seen Pinky is also coming on well with the mk1. Great work upto now.
Hope I got his name right 😆
I dont give up easily mate! 👍 . . . .Esther is in good hands! His name is Gavin Pink but he did design his own sanding blocks called 'Pinky's Blox'. 👍
I'm following his RUclips channel and the recent removal of the rear quarter panel.
Sad too see but we know she's in good hands. 👍 💯
raising the needles richens the mixture
Yeh I should have re-read the message from Jonathan BEFORE trying the adjust them! 😃
I'll just take my hat off, well done👍👍🇸🇯

winner, well done sir, bet your brain needs cooling off after all that, great that you gained all the experience, cant beat it !!!
Great video mate, enjoyed watching that one, good detective work and a great result.
Best channel going man
Glad you enjoy the videos mate! 👍
Well done fella 😎👍
Thanks mate! 👍
Happy days mate glad you figured it out, if your not making mistakes your not learning 👍
I make a LOT or mistakes!! 😃 But I learn a lot too! 👍
Boy have you got some patience Marcus. Getting there slowly though. Well done !
Thanks mate! 👍 I had time to kill anyway. Glad I persevered and got her running better.
Enjoyed that fella. Proper interesting. Looking forward to seeing more of Mavis the Moredoor being built up too.
Glad you enjoyed the video mate! 👍 'Mavis'??? I like that! 😃

This, gotta tune the airbox inlet size and internal volume to provide the environment they were designed to work in.
Good on m8 Glad to see going forward for you 👍
Great job m8 and can only wait to see Maude Dino figure ..👍

I should defo get an AFR gauge!! 👍 . . . . . or just stop trying to be a tuner! 😃
Great news mate! Always something to catch us out eh!
Especially amateurs like me mate! 😃
Can't wait for the dyno session. It'll be like a movie script. Lol.
Brilliant Marcus … keep at it mate ,you’ll crack it
🤜💥🤛
Another excellent video it's great how you took us through the whole journey 😀
Thanks mate! 👍
Hey man it's good to see that your sorting that part yourself its really difficult without a rolling road fair play though thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching mate! 👍
@@marcushayesford no problem thank you👍

Great video, best you've done for me, very informative and great perseverance 👍🏻
well done great stuff
Thanks mate! 👍

No problem Marcus as I said it was just an observation and hope that when it goes to Dyno it will be sorted and running like a dream
Great video glad you persevered
Thanks mate! 👍
gr8 work marcus your getting there mate
One step at a time mate! 👍 Good job I had time to kill before the dyno! 😃
Cool 👍🏽😀 yeah just need to sort out , and it will be great I think 🤙🏼
Really enjoyable vid. Bravo Markus.
Great job Marcus 👍👍
Top video got a st170 with zx10r carbs it needs tweaking as it’s running rich, will get it on a rolling road next year ..
Hi Marcus great video mate well done to you good luck with it
Top jobs Mate, well done
Brilliant job love the work.
Thanks mate! 👍
Great video Marcus really enjoyed it. 👍
Thanks mate! 👍
I wouldn’t even bother with tuning on a dyno . Just get a wideband , it’s a great investment.
Love the way you keep trying mate ! 👌
Thanks mate! 👍 I'm very stubborn! 😃
@@marcushayesford that’s why we love the channel mate ! I’m sure you will have that thing back In Mexico in no time !!🤣🤣🤣🤣 have a great Christmas to you both

Great video as always Marcus
Thanks mate! 👍
Sweet results Marcus /Cat🐱

Why not get webers with fuel injection at Northampton Motorsport.
No Air Filters?
You may lose hp quickly if running in dusty conditions.
K&N air filter or similar won't hurt engine output.....

marcus this is one of your best videos mate
proper interesting and glad you have got a bit of a result
you ever thought the car is suffering from fuel starvation ie need a big flow of petrol?
Thanks mate! 👍 There were times where I suspected fuel starvation but since I moved the pump under the car that side of things seems sweet.
Glad you got it all sorted I bet you where starting to give up 😁
If I'm going to quit it will be after the dyno mate! 👍
lots of great info, Thanks for sharing :)
Well done as always good vid 👍
I have an aem wideband in my mk1, makes life a lot easier diagnose rich or lean conditions.
I should defo invest in one of them. I always thought they were a waste of time with an N/A setup but it would defo help in situation like this. 👍
@@marcushayesford knowing your afr can only be a good thing, turbo or not 😎

Good video Marcus 😎👍🏻
Thanks mate! 👍
Love what your doing I’m building a st170 turbo for my connect van don’t suppose you have a blacktop solid flywheel I can do a bank transfer
Glad you like the videos mate! 👍 I DID have one spare 1800 flywheel re-drilled for a Pinto clutch BUT I gave it to my good friend Rob. 👍
Carbs respond to signal, I wonder if the lack of airbox is diminishing the signal to the carb?
Have you not considered buying a wideband gauge really useful for fault finding with issues like you have been having

Gd vid mate yeah just chipping away and getting advice where needed is the best it’s a learning process carbs can b a bit of s black art so gd going
Hi Marcus
Are you still running the ME100 on Maude with bike carbs?
Yes mate! 👍
I was just wondering if its because the air filter is missing as both my bikes don't run well with the air filter off??
I'm thinking the same thing as the sliders lift wide open it will run too lean
Air filters are for wimps!!! 😃 . . . . . But I should defo get some! 😃
Lik the MH shadows i was the 1st to do
I remember mate! 👍 AWESOME idea! 👍
Why isn’t there any Roger merch
Because he's rubbish!! . . . . . dont tell Cat! 😃
Marcus, sent you a chat on Messenger.
Can you take a look as I want you to check something on those Carbs before you keep increasing your mains.
All trial and error Marcus
Mostly error!! haha! 😃
