My bus has started backfiring when I shut it off -- anyone know what this is from? It was a weber carb, so doesn't have the "electro-magnetic fuel cut-off jet" as on the Solexs, which is how VW solved the problem before FI, but this wasn't doing it before. I was priced a weber rebuild kit at $35 at my FLAPS, which seemed outrageous for a needle and seat and a couple of gaskets, etc. -- plus I'm not exactly sure which model it is -- the only numbers are the ones on each barrel, a 26 and a 27 with a cirlce around them. My Hanes Weber manual only talks about a 32/36 DF* in the section with pictures that look like this carb, but the barrels are clearly 26 & 27, not 32/36 --- does anyone know if this is the right model designation? I sure don't want to pay $35 for the kit only to find it doesn't work. -- Harmon Seaver hseaver@csd.uwm.edu hseaver@nyx.cs.du.edu seaverh@vaxa.cis.uwosh.edu We have found the Fountain of Youth in Asia! ============================================================================== Microsoft Network, or any service owned in full or in part by Microsoft, is prohibited from redistributing this work in any form, in whole or in part.
