Weber dgav carb

Hi has anyone converted to a Weber dgav carb on their 1.9 dg ?. I have been told it would be a good move but thought I would ask first.

Re: Oil leaking when cranking engine

The bus is starting on the button now and there is no notable sign of any oil leak, the only issue now is that there is a very loud squealing noise which lasts about 2 minutes after start up. Any ideas anyone

Re: Oil leaking when cranking engine

Hi
I started the bus this morning using the cold start procedure pumping the accelerator once, it fired up after 5 seconds it has never started this quickly in the time I have owned it so very happy.

Oil leaking when cranking engine

Hi
I keep noticing small puddle off oil evertime I try and start my bus, it takes a while to get started which I know can be a common issue, it does sometimes need fuel straight into carb to get it going. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem. Its a 1.9 dg.
