Hi everyone. I'm back on the list again after over a year away. I'm looking for some help with my newly installed Weber DGV. The engine runs like @$%#% but I'm working on that. I suspect a leaking in

I had the exact same problem with the Weber I had on my car, which I have since had to replace with a ZS for emissions purposes and better gas mileage. The air cleaner would knock against the hood a

Interesting. The PO installed the Weber DGV in my '67 Mk3 -- the bonnet has never had any trouble clearing it at all. Best wishes, Jeff in San Diego '67 RHD Spitfire Mk3 aka "Mrs. Jones" Jeff's Class

Check very carefully for interference with the exhaust manifold. It took me a little while to find where one of the casting bumps on my 1980 exhaust manifold fouled the intake manifold for my SU's. Y

I've got a weber in my 79 spit that clears the bonnet quite easily also. Despite the fact that I hate it. Brad On Wed, 23 Aug 2000 10:59:51 -0700 "Jeff McNeal" <jmcneal@ohms.com> writes: ____________

Thanks, Nolan. I agree with you that it must be something like the engine mounts. Mine are relatively new as they were replaced two years ago so they have very little sag. I looked through a K&N prod

I'll second that ! I'd go as far as to say $50.00 I will take it and I'll send ya my old 150CD ! Even better, $51.00 for TWO side draft Webers and I wont send the 150CD !? Why do you hate it? I'd be

You're the second person to write and suggest a trade. Actually, there is someone in Portland who may help me put the old carbs back on, if so, I said I'd give him the weber. I hate it because of th

If you're only getting 14 MPGs with your Weber, something is terribly wrong. I'm getting 28 MPG. No wonder you hate it. Best wishes, Jeff in San Diego '67 RHD Spitfire Mk3 aka "Mrs. Jones" Jeff's Cl

OK Guys, here's my two centavos worth. The DPO/IPO/PO installed Webers in my '80 and (I can just picture this...) after discovering that it raised a slight dent in the bonnet, used the BFH adjuster o

I was only getting about 16 MPG around town (20-21 highway) when I had a Weber on my car. I had 4 or 5 different mechanics play with it over the years and that is the best it would ever do. I got ri

I guess I must just be living right. When I bought my car, I was getting about 21-22 MPG with mixed driving and thought it was atrocious, given that the dual SU specs listed 35 MPG (under best case,
