New Carburetors


A year ago or so I had about dozen New Old Solex carbs which I was able to buy
in a lot. I posted them and they all sold very quickly. Recently I've had
several more inquiries from people wanting a second carb or just to see if I
have any left. It seems more of the old ones are leaking and getting worn out,
running poorly and the cores are just not good rebuilds anymore. etc.

I'm posting this since I may be able to get a few more however they are not
cheap and I'd need to buy a lot of them and not just one or two. These are
SOLEX carbs and are bolt on correct. I've had nothing but positive comments
from those who purchased them last year. It certainly solved my carb problems.
They would be new and never installed. I'm not a carb expert but the old gent
said they were set up for the 1147 so no jetting exchanges would be needed. By
how everyone liked them so much this seems to have been the case.

The point:
Anyone wanting one of these new carbs please speak up and email me asap. No
need to send money just let me know. I'll be checking on availability but assume
if we can get a few ordered the price should be about the same as last time
which was around $275.00.
