Carbs need setting up 'just right' - would suggest you pop into a specialist if all else fails.
Can you tell if it is running too rich- and stinking of petrol at exhaust - or too lean with very little power.
Are you sure the carb is the problem and there is not something else on the ignition side, or an air leak somewhere (for example).
Sorry not to offer any technical tips specific to the weber but perhaps someone else will have some ideas.
Don't worry too much as the weber conversion was the right way to go - the pierburg one is crap.
Do a search on the forum there may be some more help...
