The Weber DGV is performing real well for the most part. Excellent throttle response, good performance. Engine starts up immediately when cold, BUT takes a bit of cranking to fire up when the engine is warm.

Plugs are not fuel soaked, nice tan color with narrow soot ring at base. I don't believe the mixture is too rich, but I could be mistaken...Mixture looks good with the colortune at idle.

Dwell and timing are dead on.

These carbs don't need that much fuel pressure to perform (can't recall the PSI figure offhand) Curious if the bend in my fuel line could possibly effect the fuel pressure, and be related to my difficult hot start issue.
