Weber 34DRTC carb WANTED

Post by Kitch »

Hi guys,

Looking for a Weber 34DRTC carb (as fitted to any 1.9 BX 8v petrol engine). Spec or condition not too important, just need the body and butterflies more than anything.

Cheers

You did very kindly send me a carb, but it's a 32/34DRTC, which is for a 1.6. I know you weren't sure what it was for, so I identified it. It's actually for a mk1/very early mk2 16 automatic.

I've got it on there to run it in the workshop, so it's fine for that, but long term I need one suited for a 19.

Hi Kitch

Ahh, Didn't realise they were different, I fitted a replacement carb to WTF from a 1.9TZS estate and that ran OK.

Maybe that one would be useful as a spares for your A plate 1.6.

Yeah it'll find a use somehow, or just wait until someone needs a 1.6 version. The 1.9 version has two 34mm chokes, whereas the 1.6 has a 32mm and a 34mm, so would strangle a 1.9 a bit.

If that used to be on a 1.9, then yes! Completely the wrong jetting too.
