Re: Price advice
Thanks for the responses, much appreciated. It is quite difficult to price as there are not many for sale and prices do seem to vary quite widely.

Price advice
My car is up for sale in the appropriate section, so rather than repeat myself please have a look there for a description. What I am after is some advice on whether or not I have pitched the car at too high a price. I have gone for a figure that seemed reasonable to me and might interest the serious ...

Re: Overhauling a weber
Thanks for that. Partly my own fault for not researching more. Haynes do a Techbook called Weber Carburetor Manual. There is no mention of DMTL in this book. Funny enough they use the exact same photograph on the cover as the Haynes Carburetor Manual. You would have thought that a book called the ...

Overhauling a weber
Right I need to overhaul the Weber. I have bought the Haynes Techbook from Amazon (it was cheaper than Ebay) thinking that this should cover the 32/34 DMTL. It appears that it does not. There is listed just about every other combination of letters. I thought this was a fairly popular carb. Is there ...

Re: Fuel reservoir
My spare Weber has been fitted, without an overhaul, to get an idea if it is the carb. Car is now running without the stutter all be it a bit fast. Apparently some of the adjustment screws are sticking and not adjusting. Plan is to strip and overhaul one. Hopefully this will now solve my stutter. I ...

Re: Fuel reservoir
Bit of an update as I know some are watching with interest. Car is 21 years old. 172k on the clock. I do 15k motorway miles a year. The fuel reservoir and pump look like the original fit. Car came with a weber so no idea on the history. I have had the car 6 years (bit of a record for me). The carb ...

Re: Fuel reservoir
Thanks. New fuel reservoir fitted. Still not a happy car. Will sit at idle with no problem but as soon as get up to around 3000 rpm the stutter comes in and the car starts to stall. Will just keep working through the fuel system and see what happens. I have a second hand carb and just got a service ...

Re: Fuel reservoir
Any advantages / disadvantages in fitting a pressure regulator? Is it possible to get a new swirl pot? Had to give up on the car this morning and blag a lift to work. It quite clearly was not happy. I have managed to drive it to my mate's garage for him to have a look tomorrow. Work and rain prevent ...

Re: Fuel reservoir
Thanks for that Alex. Will have this disconnected as soon as I can lay my hands on some fuel pipe.

Re: Fuel reservoir
Yep, that metal pot bolted on front of the engine and sort of supporting the air filter housing.

Fuel reservoir
I have an 1800 GT with a Weber carb fitted. Got a bit of a random stutter. Has been running fine then every now and then it decides to stutter and splutter. Having read various threads on here I am of the opinion that the fuel reservoir may be the potential problem. Can I disconnect this and take it ...
