Weber Carb

[Batch]

Boys and girls, just bought a weber off Matt Cooper and before i fit it what are the chances that the carb gasket will need changing?

Don't ever think the carb has been taken off, also my local parts stores can't seem to get hold of them so does anyone know (if needs be) whether i have to go to Nissan or anywhere else to find one?

Thanks guys

(on second thoughts, should the Weber come with an adapter plate?)

the carb has been taken off mate as it was mine and matt took it and cleaned it up and unless matts got a new gasket yes u do need one as mine split when i took it off

Normal nissan gasket for the stock carb is what you need and you will need one.

Is it a Nissan Jobby or are there any other places you know of to get a new gasket?

Recon i could get one by tomorrow?

So with the K&N and the S/S system it should be a tad quicker will it?

Can't wait, might be able to start driving it to work and back if it's a little quicker

nope, everyone just says that they've never seen one and that it's probably a nissan only part

Blueman don't do them, neither does my local

you may want to double check with blue man and ask what they do in the FULL GASKET set. as you may get one iin this depending on if it blueprint or nissan part

strange should just be a carb gasket lol and yes i did feel a bit more power and more grunt from it also u may want to change the choke cable that one is fine but it dont lock so u have to hold it out

not quite, there are load of bits on the K10 that are dealer only parts, especially regarding the rear suspension :down:

I have looked a few places for the carb gasket, only managed to find it at the Nissan dealers (though no doubt there are other places that do them).. For the hassle though its not that expensive from Nissan, I think it was about 8 pounds. A lot for a bit of paper or whatever I suppose, but not really that much money.

yes, its nissan only, but most places wil ldo a gasket set.

I seriously dont understand why people are still messing about with these webers.
