Hi fellow listers,
I have also been struggling with ZS carb, thinking about the Weber carb.  My 
car is a 78Spitfire, 51,000 miles, runs rich, ldles high, warms up[ slowly, 
etc., but this was only after 50,000 with the ZS.  I had trouble with the 
water choke, had it rebuilt and the carb rebuilt, but it still runs kind of 
rough.  I too wondered about the Weber for around $400, but I guess it still 
uses the same water choke, so perhaps I would not be moving to anything 
better.  I have also wondered about changing to manual coke.  I am definately 
not need ing to be a purist, I just want ti to run rignt when my wife and 
kids are driving around in it.  I drove it back and forth to work every day 
last summer, without a bit of trouble.  Maybve it just hates the cold! I have 
a Triumph expert who is going to look at the car, if only it would warm up 
and the snow would melt.  I hear that the Weber IS hard to tune, and the ZS 
should work fine since it has for 25 years already, just needs the magic 
hands of a good tuner.  It's 12 degrees here tonight on Cape Cod, with about 
10 inches of snow.  Will the warm weather ever arrive?
