Post by happycamper80 »

Hello, I need help please. My Pierburg 2 carboretta has had its day and my local mechanic said I need either another Pierburg 2 or a Niki Conversion.....can anyone help with sourcing one? I'd be very grateful :ok

Oh and I have a 1987 T25

Nearly all the parts are available for the Pierburg carburettor.. So whats wrong with it..?

Nikki carbs were never available for ours.. and are even more basic technology..
