Tuning S3
#1 Tuning S3
What CO% should I be looking for when tuning a S3 E type with Strombergs?

Thanks Colin.
I ended up setting it at 4%. Waiting for the rain to stop so I can take it for a test run.

How did it manage to get carbs on it. Is it a early XJ12 or Etype engine or the original XJS engine with the injection system taken off and carbs put on.
Just an interest question.

The only place I recall seeing Jaguar quoting a CO figure for the S3 E is on the underbonnet sticker of 72-74MY emission control cars. Basically adjust if found above 4.5% (with idle timing set at 10deg BTDC, vac retard and exhaust air injection disconnected).
