carb swap
carb swap
Just got my new Weber 32/36 today and when I started looking around at how to replace the old carb, I don't know how to hook this up. What does one do with the TSTV? how about the plastic plate below and between the carburetor and the intake manifold? What do I do with the hole in the valve cover gasket where the oil seepage/return line form the old air filter cover went. Is there somewhere a person can see pictures of the finished swap? The instructions for installing the new carb are not that terrific, but I can probably figure out how to get it together. As I figured, what to do with the old leftover pieces of the old carburetor "system" are the real puzzler.

now I've got a problem
It turns out there are three different 32/36 carbs, or more accurately One carb with three different choke styles. One is an electric choke, one a manual and one is coolant activated. They've sent me a manual one when my car is set up for an electric. In all fairness to me, here is the description straight off of ebay;
WEBER DVG SERIES - This 2 Barrel Progressive Carb Is Versatile, Increases Performance, And Is Both Cost And Fuel Efficient, Easy To Install, Easy To Maintain, Includes One 32/36DGAV Model Carb (Part Number 22680051B), Electric Choke, Redline Adapter Number 99004333, Linkage Number 99007600, Air Filter Assembly Number 99217332S, Base Gasket Number 99005068
It does say electric choke and the one pictured on the listing has an electric choke, so I feel a little bit vindicated, although it will be a small comfort as I'm walking for another week.
