Tuning the Vacuum Pod
Tuning the vacuum pod mainly involves spring changes to vary the opening rpm and rate. This is
achieved by using a tuning kit such as Demon Carburetionpart number 120083, which includes
springs that vary in the amount of pre-load and spring rate in order to fine-tune the carburetor for
every application.
The Quick-Change Pod allows for tuning with different springs without the need to remove the pod
body from the carburetor main body.
1. Using a wide bladed screwdriver or a coin (Fig. 20), remove the billet disk (color may vary from
picture) from the center of the pod lid. Once the disk is loose, lift the disk from the pod lid and
remove the spring.
2. Please note the O-ring that seals the disk to the pod top (Fig. 21).
3. Replace with a spring selected from the chart below and reinstall the disk (Fig. 22).
