914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Where can I buy carb return springs?

Posted by: lagunero Nov 23 2005, 01:00 AM

So far I haven't had any luck finding a set of return springs for my Weber carbs. Anyone know of a place who stocks them or have a different option? TIA

He's also looking for a set of matched carb linkage arms. Theres a set on there now thats kinda frankensteined that doesnt allow the carbs to open at WOT together (one arm is a little longer then the other). So his carbs need a set of idle stop arms with a hole for the CB linkage. Theres got to be a kit out there that includes all the arms needed and the return springs. He has the CB Linkage kit, but it doesnt include that stuff (only the small linkage arms with no idle stop arms).

I'll break out pictures if I have to...

Uh, Call CBperformance and tell them what you need.

Contact Richard at PMO. One of his dealers may have all of that stuff and be near you too. Here's his list.

I got mine at the local hardware store. Had about 10 different drawers to look through.

redline gave me good service when I picked up whitey from Andy & Brad in Hot Springs, AR. We needed new jets & some other misc parts. They overnighted them to us at the hotel and didn't rape me on shipping charges.

Thanks guys! I'm calling Redline today. They're local too. PMO, never thought of it. I've called CB twice and they haven't had them. The engineer that's helping me is requesting I stay away from the hardware store

You might try an industrial hardware store such as Marshall's Hardware here in San Diego? I bought my extra springs there, stainless steel and were $1.75 each. I think they had about 400 different springs in their spring section?
