Now I certainly know I did something wrong with the education of my son: this guy’s son seems to be younger than Ollie and he is already fully capable of adjusting a sidedraft Solex carburettor!!
I guess teaching Ollie this stuff won’t do much good either: he prefers to use hammers above a screwdrivers. ;)
Tag: carburetor set
Yesterday when I entered the office a nice big X-mas box (seriously!) was waiting for me and later that day another enormous box arrived at the office. I opened both of them yesterday evening.
The enormous box contained a 2T/3T gasket set:
2T/3T gasket set
I found this cheap set for as much as two of the inlet gaskets! IMO you can never have too much gaskets! :)
But what was in the X-mas box then?
What is in this box?
You probably can guess that one already:
2T-B double carburetor set from a 1983 Toyota Celica
It is a 2T-B carburetor set! Giving an instant upgrade of 11HP on my 2T engine! That is almost an increase of 15% in horsepower! :)
2T-B double carburetor set from the side
And from the side it looks even better! :)
Remember last weeks posting with the webers??
Vroom! Vroom! Vrooom! Vrooooooom!
:D :D
2T-B carburetor set from another side
So, what’s next? Well, I still need an air filter to complete the set. Whenever I find an original 2T-B air filter or an open air filter I will start installing this on the Carina! :)
