I got it with the original pierburg-solex peice of crap on it. I'm guessing he probably had the sense to ebay the weber first. This carb' is full of gunk and I had to replace the choke arm on it, I think i'll be whacking a weber on there when i've got some moolah.

I've replaced all the vacuum tubes and been using carb cleaner. The car is going infinitely better now... well for now I suppose, till it dies again. I found the right weber for it, there about 180 squids brand new, might get one if I get many more problems. I've also got a sportex backbox on the way for it, that should annoy the neighbors.  Now i've just got to convince my mum and girlfriend that it's a good idea to spend £500 of my student loan on either some ATS cups or Lenso BSX's. Hell hath no wrath... you get the picture hahah
