Hi Tim, thanks for posting these videos! I live in Colorado and own a red 83 purchased almost two years ago, non-operational with 145,000 miles. I thought I'd buy a rebuilt Keihin carb and tinker with the one off the car, so I went to find a rebuilt carb online with no success, ouch. So I had a local carb shop rebuild, I had to remove and bring it to them, and then replace it in the car afterwards, and let me tell you! I don't need to tell you anything, because according to my notes there were about 43 different connections to the carb assembly, vacuum hoses, coolant hoses, wires. You're one of the only people who truly could understand what I've experienced. The result is, it's drive-able and passed the emissions requirement. However it's lacking some power, and the power feels inconsistent. Anyway I have come to like the car a great deal. I feel sorry that I need to sell it. I'm glad to have found another enthusiast. I have reached out to you today to offer you, or any of your friends, the first chance to buy this stunning business coupe. Let me know if you'd like to see pictures of the car.

Thanks flyingrarely. They are not a simple setup to work on and a lot of carb shops dont get them done right. Sorry to hear you have to sell it. You should join the 2g fb groups to spread the word.

Hello jacob I will attempti a video of removal and reinstall in spring 2023. The exact connections vary from country to country but the basics are the same. Generally the air fuel mixture is preset and should not be adjusted however throttle cable tension, choke, idle screw and other components can and should be adjusted.

Where i can order the rebuild kit

@timolude Жыл бұрын

Hello. Usually available on rock auto or ebay. You can use either the 2bbl or 3bbl kit. Beware some are actually for the acoord A series down draught and not the dual side draught system.
