Super Jamie Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 the throats at the bottom of the carb are 35mm correct? looks like a weber design, but could maybe be a holley? open up the top plate (this is called the air horn) sometimes they have the manufacturer stamped in the float bowl. could also be an old motorcraft i'll go flick thru some carby books and see what i can find J Quote
Super Jamie Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 couldnt find anything. clean it up and look for markings on the sides of the throats, or anywhere on the carb. get a photo looking at the top and bottom Quote
demuire Posted February 14, 2004 Report Posted February 14, 2004 That green thing on the side says "WEBER"... Quote
Super Jamie Posted February 14, 2004 Report Posted February 14, 2004 thanks fook :D my holley uses a weber choke too Quote
Xany Posted February 14, 2004 Author Report Posted February 14, 2004 ok heres the pics you asked for Quote
demuire Posted February 14, 2004 Report Posted February 14, 2004 thanks fook my holley uses a weber choke too Well gee sorry mr clever carby man, I can't even tell which way is up, but it did say "WEBER"... So I made a big assumption :D Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 this carb is off a Fiat 124 Spyder Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 no that was probably of the 1600 or 1800. the 2.0's were injected Quote
kangaroosa Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 (edited) this carb is off a Fiat 124 Spyder I would tend to agree with that too. I was helping a workmate work on his Alfa Sud the other day, and he had a similar carb. The oval shape at the top was also similar, if not the same. Walking through the wreckers a few weeks ago, i noticed that most of the Alfa's and Fiats have downdraft webers that looked very similar to yours (except for more hoses and linkages of course). I was planning to use one of these carbs on my 5k, but someone pointed out that alot of these carbs are for pollution style engines. I'll try and find the quote and info he gave me. Anyway here is a list of what Carbies the more popular cars came standard with. Toyota even got a mention. http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:tFpOJ...eber+carb&hl=en Edited June 10, 2005 by kangaroosa Quote
Xany Posted June 11, 2005 Author Report Posted June 11, 2005 i no longer have this carby on my engine....it was just a little too big....considering it came off a XD falcon with a 4.1L straight 6. btw. it's a 34 ADM i now have a 32 adfa on there. Quote
kangaroosa Posted June 11, 2005 Report Posted June 11, 2005 Sorry Guys. I thought it was fresh topic. Checking back over the dates - i realise that it isnt. Quote
Xany Posted June 11, 2005 Author Report Posted June 11, 2005 thats alright....you werent the one to dig it up.... :angrybird: Quote
Xany Posted June 11, 2005 Author Report Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) very true.....it actually opened my eyes to how shitty my camera used to be....and that i now have a different keyboard.... :angrybird: Edited June 11, 2005 by Xany Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 11, 2005 Report Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) i went through so many webers on my a14, read so many books on 'em, i now consider myself somewhat of a pro with dfv/dgv/dgav. i am now running a dfv (from a pinto) i was bored and looking through old posts so i thought i could shed some light on this in case someone else found one Edited June 11, 2005 by mikeys toy Quote
