I have a '74 1.8 converted to 2.0 with dual 44IDF Weber carbs. There is lots of backfiring through the carb on the left at neutral throttle, and it tends to run on three cylinders unless I am on the gas. Does anyone know of a place to send the carbs for service? I did the rebuild kits to no avail. Thanks

If you can't maintain your own carbs it's going to get expensive fast. Buy the Weber Tech Manual and read it 5 times. Soon you'll troubleshoot and repair your carbs yourself.
I agree it sounds like a clogged idle jet. |
