last summer I rebuilt the down draft weber on my spitfire and could not
get it to run with our pumping the gas pedal.  Used a lot of carb.
cleaner, more than on brand  with not luck.  Then found a carb shop that
would put the carb & parts in their heated  cleaner over night for about
$10.   Actually all weekend long it I could have gotten it there on
Friday.  Best $10,  I ever spent.   The SU & Strombergs  have less ports
and small passageway than the weber  and should clean easier right?
