914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Weber carb parts needed ASAP

Posted by: ottox914 Jun 30 2005, 02:34 PM

I have posted this in the classifieds for 914 parts and race parts, but wanted/needed as many people to see this as possible. Next event is in one week!!!

Our Emod 914 is in need of an accelerator pump linkage! The carb is a 44 IBF 38. PM me if you can help.

thanks-

David Parsons

I'll look. is this the cam and arm or spring bar with nut on the end?

As the car is not mine, (I'm just the driver/track side mechanic/go-to guy for ideas and parts...) and I'm surfing out some parts for the owner, I'm not sure what all we need, but the more bits and pieces the better. Can paypal promptly and would need next day shipping. He's not asking to much, huh?...

From what he described to me, the linkage was "missing", as though someone forgot to install it at the last re-build, which would make me think all the bits and pieces are needed.

This kinda explains the poor throttle tip in response- sputters than goes like, well, you know...

Trying to get a photo up so you all will know what you're contributing to.

Thank you.

Here it is!!! We need to get this bad boy back on the track...damn super charged "new fangled" cars have taken the FTD too often!!!!!

The fastest event of the year is coming up in 9 days, it would be a tragedy if we were still only running on 2 cyl. coming out of corners then!

Please help us grill up some pesky Miata!!!

All I have is the kind with the arm and wheel. The spring and reach rod type is broken but I have the springs and lever. piece if steel rod and a die you could make a new rod. just match it up with the other side.

Which one do you need.

Since I don't know any more about what carbs or linkage is needed, if you'd part with all of it, I'd take all of it. How much for the box of stuff? PM me a price and how to pay, and include a little for your time, as we/he wants it ASAP, like in overnight shipping. OR, its 7:30 am in my town now, call me in an hour at 616-780-4953.

Thanks- David
