Rob74coupe Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 :) :) hey all, iv picked up a couple webers off ma mate, he only wanted $20 with 2 k series adapter plates and a redline air filter so i snapped them up haha so anyways they both say they are 32/36 on the lil tags but one is way bigger, just wanted to know whats the difference and what would be the better one for my car, power wise i spose? photos are a bit dodge as they are on my phone, cheers, haydn Hmm, both look the same to me cept the top one has an automatic water choke, one should be a 32/36 dgv the other should be a 32/36 dgav?? (not sure really... dg**) i recommend using the one without the water choke (you can just take the water choke off orr leave it disconnected, and i believe you can change what type of choke it is, ie take off water choke and put on manual/electric choke) otherwise the carbs should be identical (cept for choke sizes/venturis/jets/etc which you can change round between the two carbs you have) cheers, rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob74coupe Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 just thought id add if you want to use the water choke just plumb it in line with the heater core (i think, the circuit that bypasses the thermostat anyway, I'm pretty sure its the heatercore... there might just be a hose thats just a U shape that bypasses the thermostat, use that if you got one) i don't really like water chokes... all the 32/36s ive had ive removed the chokes entirely (shafts and buttefly) just takes a bit longer to start on a cold morning.. i reckon just use whichever one looks in the best nic and runs better rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke rollin 20 Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) ok thanks mate, so there both the same but ones got the choke on it. hmmm so why wouldnt you want a choke??? wouldnt it be better so she starts easyer..? so could i change the automatic choke on the weber to a manual choke because its got the manual choke in the car already??? haydn.

philbey Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 It can be a pain getting the chokes on these suckers to work nice, you ever see an XE Falcon trying to start on a cold morning........ I've found sometime getting these webers going on a cold morning is even harder with the choke than without! Sidedrafts don't run them. Just pump a few times then hold it flat and it'll start.

ke rollin 20 Posted August 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 ok cheers, i went for the one without the choke, i thought that the weber itslef will act like a choke so yeee, runs well so I'm happy :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godlovesugly Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 nice work man. ive never used a choke either, if my ex can get my car running on a cold winters day than anyone can do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob74coupe Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 you can get supercheap/repco to order you in the rectangular air filters for these, they come in two heights, the covers have different clips for the different heights, i went to the redline webber website and they sent me a free catalog, although that was a few years ago and it took about 3 weeks, i can get you the part numbers for the filters if you want, just go to the parts desk and ask to have a quick look at the redline catalog (they usually haveone, sometimes they look at you a bit funny... I'm pretty sure theres a manual choke kit in there too. it also has baseline jetting figures for some engines... havent looked at it for k stuff yet... cheers, rob p.s. i MIGHT have an old filter assembly you can have for $10 bucks, i think my parents might have thrown it out though cos i left it in their garage (they threw out my black scorpion bush basher on me... bastards) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
