Hello all, On the 67 MGB roadster, I am going to remove the Weber downdraft carb and replace it with the original equipment SU's. I'm not happy with the Weber for various reasons. Mostly a hesitation

Inspect the jet tube hoses that go from carb to float bowl. If these are iffy, then buy a rebuild kit. If they look ok, what the hey. Pull the pistons out by removing the three screws on the milk bo

My thinking would be, swapping carbs is fun. So I would install the SUs, run them, and thereby prove that they needed rebuilding, then take them off and rebuild them, during which time the car would

So, if the Weber problem is the float setting - does anybody have a good link to where I can find some information about how to adjust it? I took the air filter and brackets off the carb last night a

I had the same problem when I ran the Weber on my 1970 MGB. The float height is a crucial setting, as you can see by your off-idle hesitation. I forgot the exact setting (I think it's 51 mm), and my
