purplebargeken Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 I like this Astra but it needs a carb that I don't have, have no idea how to fit and cannot afford. C'mon Rofflers, get in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scruffy Bodger Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I've stuck a question about carb options on the Mk2 Astra forum just for the hell of it. I'll either be: IgnoredAdvised to fit a weberAdvised to by a GTE Tbh, most carbs for any 1.3 should do the job within reason. They chuck in a ball park amount of fuel into a certain sized orifice and have a certain amount of adjustment either way.http://subarujusty.proboards.com/thread/3896/weber-carburetor-swap-picsIf you can fit a similar carb or lesser version to a Justy it'll work on one of these. I didn't offer mine up since it's jetted for a 1.8/2.0l and not been used in 10+ years. The "adapter" plate I posted pretty much proves it's not rocket science?I'd also like to think fact instead of interwebz theory still counts for something Ps. being a big block I am sure the inlet manifold is different too but may be wrong. purplebargeken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplebargeken Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 Cmon folks. Not that far off now. My laptop has died so am trying to use an iPad. Mate wasn't able to look at the car as his elderly mum was in hospital. I may try if I can get the time and weather to sync. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplebargeken Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 Okay, I am happy for the roffle to go ahead despite not selling all the tickets. I will circulate mypaypal details to the participants tomorrow when I can access a proper PCs not this bloody iPad. The number will be drawn the usual way. If no winning ticket then the winner wil be the one that is chosen by a cunning method that will be revealed before the draw. If I can work the iPad I will circulate earlier.
