Gday
The bloke who looked at my engine said the carbys had a big vacuum leak, and
that one was totally stuufed and the other was halfway there. I said to him hiow
much to get them fixed and he said to get them reconditioned would be betwen
$500 and $600. Ithink this is quaite a bit considering they are only 1 and a
quarters i think. I dont nessesarily want webers, su's webers dellortos
whatever, as long as they are doing there job. Just out of curiosity does anyone
have any comments to say about dellortos?
