I need some help, I have a 78 Hilux 20R and the majority of the smog / vacume lines have been removed. I need a diagram or some good photos so I can get this thinrunning properly. Thanks in advance for your help. Guy
Do you have to smog it? If not just get a weber and some block off plates and strip it down to the minimum
No I dont need to and I dont want to buy anothet carb. I have no problem with pulling all the smog junk off just want to use yhe original carb.
Search "20R Desmog" some good threads come up. Although everyone says tuning the stock carb is a pain to tune without the emmissions stuff
On my first truck I ran a stock carb completel desmogged and tuned it just fine. If you know what your doing and your carb is in good shape, you won't have a problem. Just find the vacuum port on the carb that gets more vacuum with more throttle to run for the distributor
Thanks guys, I took the smog pump off and I am in the process of replacing the base plate gaskets etc. I will keep you posted.
Most of these carbed trucks dont have carbs in the best shape. Thats why i didnt even bother with mine. Ordered a weber right off the bat
Had the header bypass ports cuto and welded closed. I have removed all the emisions except the EGR. I will be fabing a plate fir that in the next few weeks. Thanks guys for the advice.
