came to learn this swap for my 1982 Chrysler LeBaron with this weird neat little engine, subscribed for the blatant farting on camera because fart humor IS HILARIOUS

This is pretty amazing!! Good job, where did you end up connecting the brakebooster vacuum line

I got here through your Facebook link. Good video. I wonder how well the Mikuni carb would have worked had each of the vacuum lines been replaced with new ones, one by one. It's a really good set-up when it works. I'd probably look for a way to connect that line off your charcoal canister marked "a/c." That's air cleaner. It'll evacuate the canister when the gas tank fills it up with fumes. Otherwise, you may smell gas fumes at weird times and in strange places. I most recently used a Holley self-regulating 2.5 - 4 lb pump that I strapped onto the cross member directly in front of the gas tank, with a clear 5/16" in/out filter in front of the flow. All those external pumps are noisy, so it's just part of the game, I guess. Webers can be funny in a Raider/Montero. See how much you like it off road, particularly when pointing the truck up a steep incline or decline. Thanks for putting the video together!

Yea I know the mikuni is the ideal if you can get it running right, I just didn't want to deal with that headache. And yea I'm sure the weber bowl would cause issues going up or down, but I'm just going to cruise this thing. Not really planning on going off road with it. Glad you stopped by the video!

I’ve done Weber swap on standard raider before few years back doing automatic. Will let you know how I hook up trans kickdown linkage. Post how you do it for others to know about it pease and thank you.

Great video!! Very helpfull,, any updates??

what is the part number for the carburator adapter plate? Great video, by the way.

what did you end up doing with the kickdown cable?

Did anybody ever figure out how to do the kickdown cable?

Going to install one this weekend, this video is greatly appreciated

hopefully it's helpful!!

how did you handle the kickdown?

...the timing chain has a bit of slack, about 1/2" or so, on the driver's side ... passenger side is tight, the side where the tensioner is installed ...the chain, sprockets, all look good & shinny, no sign of damage as far as the eye can see ... should this be a concern ? G54B engine, 2.6L auto, gas

on the 2.6L G54B engine, does the Mikuni carb need to come out, before the fuel pump can be replaced ?

Put a webber 38dgas twin throttle openings of a ford capri v6 3.0l amazing perforemance

I done this carb swap on my 88 raider but didn’t put in the new fuel pump and now it starts and runs but is very very sluggish and not near the power it had before. Any suggestions?

Was just gifted a LeBaron and thinking about carb swapping. KZread’d for pointers and was like “hey, I know that guy!”

I've only driven it a mile or two out from home base so far. Still haven't got it hooked up and haven't had to drop a gear to pass anybody or anything. I'm waiting on fixing my temp sensor before I venture too far out. Then I will get the kick down cable fixed

Does it make the car full consumption economical???
