Metering Jets .086

The Metering Jets .086 from Edelbrock represent precision fuel delivery components essential for carburetor tuning and performance optimization. These brass jets are engineered for mechanics and enthusiasts who demand exact fuel metering in Edelbrock carburetors, ensuring proper air-fuel mixture ratios across engine load conditions. Whether you're restoring a classic engine, fine-tuning a street machine, or troubleshooting lean running conditions, these metering jets provide the calibrated orifice size needed for accurate carburetor mapping.

Constructed from durable brass, the .086 inch ID (inner diameter) opening controls fuel flow through the main metering circuit, directly influencing how much fuel reaches the engine at cruise and part-throttle conditions. The .086 designation reflects the precise bore diameter that meters fuel based on engine vacuum and throttle position—a critical variable in carburetor calibration. Brass construction resists corrosion and provides longevity in both street and performance applications, while the compact design (1.75 x 1.2 x 5.1 inches) allows straightforward installation and removal without complex modifications to existing carburetor bodies.

Ideal for carburetor diagnostics, baseline tuning, and performance adjustments, these metering jets suit anyone rebuilding or modifying Edelbrock carburetors. Technicians commonly stock multiple jet sizes to dial in fuel delivery for different engine configurations, fuel types, or altitude conditions. The .086 size works well for moderate-displacement engines running stock to mildly modified induction systems. Installation requires only basic carburetor knowledge and proper jet removal tools—a quick swap that can eliminate stumble, hesitation, or rough idle caused by incorrect fuel metering. Always verify carburetor model compatibility before ordering to ensure proper fitment and performance.
