Hi folks,

 

My car has developed certain cough & twitch upon accelerating.

I suspected worn carburetor and felt radial looseness in throttle valve shaft in vertical direction.

A common issue in old downdraft units, right?

 

I suppose I need to have the bores in the carb body sleeved and possibly the throttle shaft turned to tolerance.

The question is, are there spec's to do the job, any repair parts or materials to make it easier?

 

Thanks,

Pekka

Easier to find a rebuilt replacement Pekka. I think I might be on your neighborhood next month... Maybe I can carry one over for you.

Thanks for the tips and help offer Mark.

I'll be looking for rebuild one or a good cast iron flange (base) for parts.

We'll keep in touch by e-mail.

 

Thanks,

Pekka
