Roffle Not all Vauxhalls are shite. Please pay, roffle on Saturday!

[purplebargeken]

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.

Good luck with roffle. I won’t take part as I have more than enough old Vauxhall shite as it is. If winner of car wants a new indicator stalk message me and I’ll send you one.

[purplebargeken]

^^ That is very decent of you. Thank you.

[sal]

You’re welcome. It will be one less part for me to rehome.

[purplebargeken]

I've stuck a question about carb options on the Mk2 Astra forum just for the hell of it.

 

I'll either be:

 

Ignored

Advised to fit a weber

Advised to by a GTE

 

[Jimbob McGregor]

Please stick me down for a couple of randoms.

[purplebargeken]

All sorted, thanks

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.

If 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]

Sensible sounding fb person is suggesting trying a service kit and an inline filter........ hmm.

[purplebargeken]

Mate going to have a look at this on Weds, will fir thermostat and maybe try and give the carb a clean just in case stuck jet/jets.

[pandamonium]

Two randoms please .. 

[purplebargeken]

Done!

[pandamonium]

Just make sure they're winning ones Ken. I'm a bit handy with carbs and I've wanted this for a while!

[purplebargeken]

I'll see what I can do mate, they owe me a favour or two at Camelot.

[purplebargeken]

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.

[purplebargeken]

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.

[purplebargeken]

Hiya. Can someone please pass the details to fiat4alfa please as I can't find him on the forum search in order to message him. Most odd.

 

Thanks

 

Ken

[purplebargeken]

9 and 16 are your additional numbers panda, iPad is an arse and updating the roffle list is also an arse.
