I have just about given up on trying to make the car more driveable with the single Weber on my'74 1.8. Never could get it right. If you were going to buy new twin carbs, manifolds, etc what would you buy and from who?
Thanks. Ed |

Your problem is one carb with long intake runners that are just horribly inefficient on a boxer. Dual 40s if your engine has changed the cam to work with that setup. Otherwise, FI is so much better in every way and worth fixing.
