Valve saver

<< < (2/2)

Jerome:
I've had a closer look and taken the attached pic. I've had a bit of a guess as to what pipe goes where 'n does what. Ideally i would like to tap into one of these with the valve saver. Can anyone shed any light as to which PVC pipe is between the butterfly valve and the venturi? Hope you can make out the text.

Cheers

Jerome

Just to [throw it] you off further then, with your VV type carbs you will also need a piston-lifter to prevent the SU piston from lifting up and down as you drive.  Without any fuel in to lubricate the needle it will wear rapidly and soon need replacing.

Asd for the valve-saver I'd advise you drill and tap the insert into the inlet as you want the oil droplets to be carried by the air stream and not dragged along the surface of the inlet manifold.

Jerome:
I was hoping i was wasn't going to have to do that, how do you prevent swarf geting in the carb when drilling? I might leave it to someone who knows what the're doing.

Piston lifter? I really need a manual, someone suggested i find an old RRC manual, whatcha think? I've got a diesel defender manual for normal breakables.

tomcat:
better still take off the gas stuff and put it in a skip and run the babe on full fat she will thank ya for it,its a crime running a v8 on lpg.no offence.
