oil weight is quite literally the acceleration enrichment control. A thick oil will make it run richer by slowing the response of the piston, increasing air velocity over the bridge drawing more fuel

FWIW, I did exactly that with my 59 TR3A, trying everything from ATF to 50 weight motor oil. My choice was straight 20 weight. Your choice will probably be different. The 56 seems like it could use

I have used all sorts of stuff and it all works fine, ATF, 20W, 5W-30, 30W, the Stuff Moss sells, no discernable difference by my seat of the pants in various cars over the years. If you have a moder

Years ago I used some air tool oil simply because it was handy and in a convenient squirt bottle. Haven't had a running car for a while, but I'll probably use it on the next car I have that needs it.

My factory manual is quite specific on using 20W/50 engine oil for both Strombergs and SU. I've experimented in the past with various oils and grades but always returned to 20/50. Jonmac ____________

I've no argument with the above but it always makes me ponder the following. Since a rising piston/needle also allows more fuel to flow due to a smaller needle diameter, I've always wondered about th

As I understand it, the idea is that the increased velocity of the air through the venturi (due to the piston being held in position by the damper / oil) increases the vacuum that is applied at the b

Hi Allen: I'll have a go at that one. Keeping the piston down as the butterfly valve is opened will increase the vacuum in the carb body. Depending on the design, that could act to directly suck more

Ditto. Higher velocity means more venturi effect. This is how 'normal' fixed venturi carbs flow more fuel when the air flow increases. -- Randall
