Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys,

I have upgraded my stock carb to a weber 32/36.

But I have been having a problem with fuel consumption.
It is running at about 13l per 100km where the stock carb was down at about 9.5l.

Do I need to look at changing the jets in it?

Any help you may have would be greatly appreciated ...

its purring away now with no problems at all.
