914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ WTB: Dellorto Gaskets....

Posted by: treborzerimar Dec 15 2010, 10:21 PM

OK... so I love my 36 Dellortos... but the "WHISTLING" is driving me CRAAAAZZZYYYYY!!!!!

CB Performance no longer makes the hard carb-to-manifold gaskets that plug up those holes in the carbs that allow air to make that horrible (subjective) sqweeel sound.

If you happen to have a set ( I suspect the hard material would age well) lyimng around unused, please consider selling them to me for a fair price.

My ears would appreciate it.

Robert

ps - I understand that I can epoxy-fill the holes. I would rather source the gaskets, if possible. Me and epoxy are not a good match.

Thank you all for your info and suggestions. I will try plugging the "whistling" holes with RTV silicone this weekend.

My ears can't wait.

Cheers!

Look for a "fuel safe" sealant, not just regular RTV and you only have to plug the little hole, not the whole cut-out.
