Alfisti, Does your Weber engine not come back to idle readily when you release the throttle? Does it "Chuggle" or lurch at low speed, partial throttle cruising? Does it backfire at partial throttle deceleration? Mine DID. I discovered that my Bosch distributor springs were not pulling the advance mechanism back the way they should which caused the timing to stay advanced longer than normal and allowed the timing to hunt at 2500 to 3000 rpms. One remedy if you don't have new springs: Take the distributor apart and under the advance plate are two screws that hold the spring arms in place. You can loosen these screws and adjust the spring tension. I have no way of knowing what I have done to the advance curve but I do know that I now have two cars that drive great and come back to idle like they are supposed to.
