32/36 emulsion tubes

I'm running a F50 primary and F6 secondary emulsion tubes along with CD's jetting recommendations. I'm getting some bogging coming off idle onto the mains. It idles and runs pretty smoothly, just need that...little bit more!

Aw, damn it CD! You force me to admit my astounding level of ineptitude. I've been real unhappy with both mileage and response with my car. I'm running your jetting prescription. I decided to get to the bottom of it and so studied the books and your posts and decided to see if the idle jet was dirty. So I pulled the primary idle jet and it was a 55. Wait a minute, that isn't right. It should be a 60 in the primary. Oh, no...The dawn brakes. Oh no!!.... So I pulled the jets and properly swapped them. Stunning difference.

To answer your question, I cannot screw the right jets into the correct holes and you want me to identify and "epoxy" my carb body. I'd end up with my lower lip stuck to the carb. I'm to damn dumb to be issued an epoxy license.

Ever the optimist, or ignoring all the evidence, you say it is the only brass tube...

I read somewhere that the F7 emulsion tubes would help with the momentary stumble. I believe that it was to help with the stumble between the primary and the secondary opening, not from starting from idle, but I could be wrong. I think I read that here on the FAQ, but a quick search didn't pull up the thread. My carb had F66 tubes in it, but I replaced them with F50s and followed the prescription. HTH.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
