I have a 1980 mustang, 2.3L non-turbo. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to properly tune a carburetor or point me in the direction of where I could find out.
The best advice I can give you is order Haynes Weber Carburetor manual and use the instructions pertaining to the 32/36 DFV or 32/36 DFAV. The other thing you could do is pop on EBay and buy some Ford shop manuals for your car. They would detail the carburetor well.
2.3 n/a is carbed on Mustangs up to '86 if i'm right.
1980 should be a Holley 5200 which is a licensed copy of Weber 32/36 DFEV ... so unless he upgraded to EFI ...
I forgot to mention that this is a 1980 mustang 2.3L non-turbo, I saw there was some confusion on the year of the car. To answer the question of the carburetor, I am not sure if it is a Holley 5200 but probably after I post some pictures, it will be easy to tell. Unfortunately, the car was just picked up for painting. I will post the pictures when the car gets back. I will post a message when it gets back along with the pictures. Again, thanks again for responding.
That is what my carburetor looks like, the only difference is I have the choke still on it. My mustang is also an automatic transmission. Thanks for posting the picture.
