auszookers.com :: View topic - carby conversion

everyone says the same thing, go EFI... some people (like me) prefer a carby due to the fact its easier and cheaper to repair (generally speaking)... i'll never go efi for a fourby, but thats just me...

I was kind of hoping someone else would chime in..

I know sweet FA about carbies of any type :roll:

But my guess would be that it would climb hills better but flood on side angles

Nah those carbs are shit for anything but flat out in a straight line or cornering a bit

I see heaps play up big time at motorkahnas, they hate being thrown around

efi>carbi

we had a throwing comp with my old carbi pete... they are hard to get a decent distance haha

don't tell me he's relisted it again.... maybe it's time for another round of questions.

What happened last time?

just seen this on e bay and thought that if it fit would suit sierra's being a side draught carby there wouldn't be the stalling problems of other carby's i don't know much about carbs but thought i wouldt put it out there http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Weber-40-DCOM-ca ... 4cf1b92192

That $700 would be better spent on EFI.

efi is good but i seen this and also seen normal webers for sierras for 600 so for a little bit more you might not have all the off road issues of the down draught webber but that is as long as it fitted and was the right size to suit the 1.3 engine in a sierra and could be tuned to run properly

Hahaha I was talking about the side draught And if your carby hasn't flooded you haven't wheeled it hard enough yet

Fuel bowl is centered under the throats, just like many bike carbs. Significant improvement over downdrafts with there bowl positioned on a side of the carb.

What I find harder to believe is that ebay lets this be advertised. You cannot see the carby, you get very rude replies to legit questions, its over priced to buggery. Maybe questions should be directed at Ebay as to why a Weber carby sticker costs so much, and why the dude selling is so rude and offensive.

Auszookers banded together, and asked him a lot of questions, some real, some sounded really real, some were really really real. He took t off the site, a little later, up it went gain, and again lots of questions asked, again it was withdrawn. Now its back
