Subject: [Spridgets] SU AUD 136t carbs

So I am poking around for SU AUD 136 carbs to fit my 1098 junkyard 
motor that came with no carbs.  I found some on Ebay that looked ok in 
pictures and bought them, a few hours later the seller said he didn't 
have them, that was a old listing that Ebay had put back up accidentally.

  There are a few other listings, some missing parts and one saying many 
moveable parts are stuck, well that is what was wrong with a set a carbs 
i got from a friend, everything stuck and too badly corroded to ever 
work again...major pits in venturi area by the butterflies on one and 
pistons on both...way too bad for a rebuild.

  There are some on ebay that claim to be rebuilt for a 1098cc motor but 
they are not AUD 136's so I am not sure what will and will not work, 
they all kind of look the same to me, I just know my motor had AUD 
136t's originally.

  Anyone have a set to sell ? ideally something with nothing frozen and 
a decent throttle shaft since I don't have the ability to ream and put 
bushings in (although i know there are o-ring shafts now that may solve 
that problem).

  I do have a manifold, not sure its the right one but it fits, it does 
not have the port for the PCV valve which I think is correct for 1098, 
this is not a show car, I just want a good driver.   I have seen that 
Mo$$ has new ones...yike$ and there is a advantage to that since I would 
not need to buy a rebuild kit.

you'll probably never need one again.

Mike, if this is the manifold you need you're welcome to it.

The MG Experience forum has a Buy, Sell, & Trade section that I find parts i=
n.  Much better than ebay because these guys are car guys, not parts sellers=
.  No carbs available right at the moment though.  If you join the forum and=
 post a "Carbs wanted" message you may get results fairly quickly though.
