Can anyone spot the mistake other than the linkage and the fuel lines not being on!



Description

Tube on inside of trumpet back to front.
number 3cyl.

[Edited on 29/5/07 by stevec]

fuel connector pointing differet ways, and neither of them is a T piece?

Emmm You have posted a picture of your carbs and it should have been a picture of you dash?

1. you wont get an airfilter over them.
2. First time you rev it No.1 and 2. trumpet will break off.

I think you may need an upswept manifold

it's a car engine

Yer tit

haha i know! After all that! Runs sweet as a nut now though. Sure there is more pull now the venturis are the same size!

Was moving house as the weekend and had to run the car over in the rain (only about half a mile or something). It was drifting all over the place!! Great

I would have said the same Rupert! Are you SURE??

The tapered thin end should be at the outer, inlet, end.

thats what i said... number 3 is good!

Another way to tell ( and i am looking at a Weber manual) is the fuel feed sticking down in the auxilary venturi is cut at an angle that is deeper in the auxilary venturi at the outer end slopping up towards the engine end.

3 still looks the wrong way round to me but it might be an optical illusion in the photo!

I'd have gone with Steve on this.

#3 is the correct one, all the others are wrong.

I can confirm that the Pinto makes a better car engine than a boat anchor, I did a little experiment in my dinghy at the weekend, didn't even make it to the water the trailer snapped in half

The biggest mistake is you forgot to reduce the picture to a reasonable size

boot anchors arnt even heavy, the one on our boat is made from a light alloy

Close I would have said no 3 is the RIGHT way round, the others need checking.

HE he he. When I posted this I hadn't scrolled down any further than the first & second posts, and only found out I was right after I had posted and then scrolled down further.
I bet you've got a great big grin on your face now it runs proper like.
