Hi all

Can anyone recommend a rolling road to tune a 2l pinto running a 38 dgms weber carb.

Im near reading so somwhere within striking distance preferable.

Thanks

Dave

I live near Woking I had my 2.0L Pinto with Weber on rolling road at Uxbridge - company called Power Engineering http://www.powerengineering.co.uk/

They did a great job and if I recall it cost about £130. (this included re-jetting and a fuel filter - they did not charge for these extras thye just consider it as expected in the tuning price).

You have to book in - I arrived at opening time (I think 8.30 ish). It took about 2.5 hours, the lad who does it uses both the rolling road computer and fine tuning with a stethoscope down the carb - he adjusted jets, the carb screws and timing - its a constatnt iteration of all 3 until he gets it right. (I had myself a walk into Uxbridge so I was not watching all the time - it does get tedious and hearing your car do 3500 rpm at standstill in a room is unerving.


Hope this helps - it was more than worth the money.

Hi Dave,
Millie was tuned at Interpro near Bristol. They were recommended by the ECU manufacturer (OMEX). I was very pleased with the service I got and the resulting tune. They have specific skill and experience with OMEX ECUs. I do not know how good they are with Pintos. They did have a good variety of interesting cars to look at.
