It's usually better to fit them at night after spending the day on the beach too!

very true mark, and after being on the beach, you cant go fitting carbs on an empty stomach either...... genuine local Cuisine gives me the best energy for working on cars. :innocent

I was assuming the day on the beach included a clam bake or something...at least thats the way we spent our time on the beach in maine anyway.....so no clam bake then?? cant work on cars properly if your sober and hungry...thats against the F1 convention im sure. hehehe

At this rate the flights, beers, beach parties etc, I might as well fit the car with the carb of a Bentley. :popcorn

I wish! I honestly really want to buy this Weber carb, given what every one is saying about it, sounds really cool. Where can I buy one? I hope it' not that expensive as I have to pay the license this much, and the BM license is rather a lot given it's engine capacity, and petrol consumption.

Heey Microrang, I just posted a thread yesterday asking about the replacement for the Solex. I can't find one which is a direct and identical replacement with the automatic choke and correct round shape at the top and all.
