Just rebuilt my Solex 4a1 carburetor (European version of US Quadrajet). I'l be putting it in my Mercedes (that's currently running Weber 38) in next few days:
- well, I know who I'M gonna call_niko
- if u got carb questions - i'm here - cause much of the internet is littered with half-truths.pr2
- wish i had these skills to fix my mazdajaylarson
- it doesn't take much skills but it takes some reading to understand what the hell each part is really responsible for (manuals NOT internet forums).pr2
- That looks beautiful. But what's wrong with the Webers? I used to have them in my Alfa.Longcopylover
- Solex has 4 barrels - it idles and uses the small ones until around 3500rpm then the large secondaries kick in. = more precise fuel control.pr2
- Plus it has vacuum modulator (that large vacuum can at an angle) so it increases/decreases idle based on engine needs.pr2
- nice. satisfying workGnash

- if you want to buy a range rover classic with out an engine swap, buy a bicycle. You're going to need a second mode of transportation when it's in the shop.fooler
