I know for sure that Im going to stick dual carbs on my 1975 2.0 But the mechanic said its going to cost $500-$600 for the carbs he hasn't looked yet to see what he can get. I asked if they were weber carbs and he said those are going to cost alot more. Im thinking about getting some carbs online myself and just pay for the labor to get them put on. That will probley be cheaper. But Im not sure of any good places. Im looking for some good carbs that arn't going to be over kill but will make my porsche run really good.
Im asking for help with the carbs and I have made my mind up that Im not sticking with fuel injection so please don't tell me how good fual injection is and how I should not go with carbs. Thanks to all those who help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) |

If you have been following his posts all along you will not the car first had to be push started because of a starter issue. I think it ran. I still runs but only if he pours some gas down the TB. This means its should just be a fuel pump problem, maybe just a fuse or relay. Ripping out the FI is stupid and paying to install carbs for $500 to 800 is even dumber.
He still hasn't told us what the problems are other than it don't run. We ask questions to help troubleshoot it and get no response. WTF! oh,well as he is a typical 16 year old. Geoff |
