Weber Carb manual?

[Adrian Southgate]

Anyone got one of these?

Are they any good for DGAS and DGAV carbs?

[Steve Kerswell]

I have a different one, find it very technical, too technical for me, I never realised how much workings could be in a carb. Oh and its a set of three.

[Steve Kerswell]

This is the ones I have.

[Adrian Southgate]

I don't mind technical, in fact the more technical the better. I have the urge to find out how these work in depth so I guess its the way to go.

This one is off ebay and it about £12, 92 pages covering all sorts but does not list either the DGAV or DGAS carbs on the listing.

I'll keep looking.

I have this one that I got off fleabay:

Chapter 7 covers 32 DFD, DFE, DFM, DIF, DAF, DGV and 32/36 DFV, DGV, DFAV, DGAV

The chapter is 26 pages and most of it is relevant as the different models are very similar. I could have a go at scanning it to a PDF if you want.

[Adrian Southgate]

Thanks James. I think i'm going to need hard copy eventually but the DGAV chapter would probably be very useful so yes please.

[Steve Kerswell]

I know an Amazon, she don't know much about Weber carbs though.

[Steve Kerswell]

You could bin them Ade, and get some S.U. carbs, I just rebuilt mine, never realised how simple a carb can work, just air passing a hole that sucks petrol.

Here is a useful (if expensive) item for those of you with leaky throttle shaft bushes on your webers. I was told by a weber expert that these were not available however I had a set fitted to the 32/32 on the leggie ages ago and they do work.

Throttle shaft bearings are a direct replacement for the nylon or ptfe bushes on the throttle spindles which over time, wear and leak air into your carb body. If you run a DGAS or DGV/DGAV go give the main shaft a wiggle, if its loose it may be leaking air. These will stop that wiggle.

I have a friend who turns out little things like bushes for spindles on carbs. He done mine on my 2" su's that are now sleeping in the parts bin. He rebuilds Webers for the rally guys etc. down here.
