I was trying to pull together a few things to help Terry Mason with his Dell set-up, but being a bit of a luddite I'm unable figure out how to attach a .pdf or a .jpg to my PMs, so I thought I'd try posting them here. Besides, I thought they might be useful to others running Dell's . . . .

The first picture is a copy of the linkage guide I recieved when I bought the Dellorto kit (from Claude's Buggies, 1983). I've made a couple of notes that might help in the set-up . . .

I've got these, plus a copy of the CB flyer "Dialing In Your Dellortos" in a single .pdf, but it's too big to post here (just over 2 MB) . . . . if you need this, PM me and I'll try e-mailing it to you.

I also have some old Dell-related articles too, I'll scan these--or copy and "snail mail"--if anyone is interested:

"Dellorto Power" (part 1), Dune Buggies and Hot VWs, May 1983

"Dellorto Power" (part 2), Dune Buggies and Hot VWs, June 1983

"Dellorto Mega-Torque--Dial In Your Carbs," VW Trends, September 1985

Hope this helps . . . .

Thank you sooo much!

I was pretty surprised that my new CB performance linkage didn't include any guides at all. I had no idea what the springs were for before your post!

Thanks buddy we were just talking about this kind of stuff last nigh some members were helping me..This kinda helps to

If I can figure out how to attach a .pdf, I could put some additional stuff out here . . . scanning text in as a .jpg makes the file too big to post (at least I think that's what's happening).

Best,

CB has a document on their web page.
Dual Carb Linkage Installation

Its only an exploded view but it should explain alot.

I was just about to post a copy . . . .

Thanks for the info. I will be needing this soon. I am rebuilding a 2.0 with Jake's kit, and will be using some Dells that came off of a parts car I obtained.

Thanks, Joe O.
