will a single w/c carb/manifold fit/work on my 2ltr a/c

Post by mr_clarkson »

as title really. you may have read my other post about my recent woes with my van, well my m8s mum has a single carb with manifold she brought for her watercooled van (1.9 i think) but never used as she was given a webber. just wondering if this setup would fit straight onto my 2.0ltr Aircooled van to replace the twin carbs that i think are knackard. or would i need to buy differant manifold ect?

thanks for reading

I don't know but it gotta be worth a try . You'll have to do something with the choke as its operated by the water temp,
