Got handed a garage by the neighbours over the weekend and the guy said that there was a weber carb in there for a ford escort, He said that he bought it as an upgrade to the std carb that was on his mk2(?) escort.

He had it on there for about 4-5 years and then took it off when he sold the car.

Can anyone shed any light as to what sort of carb i have here, I have included some pics below.

cheers all

 

VV

 

what the carb above is a VV carb?

 

its for an over head valve engine that was fitted to mk1/mk2 eccorts ect

or could be early CVH engine ,im not really sure

 

yes

 

pffft crap then so i can chuck it in the bin.

 

Yes

mark

 

can go in the bin then.

 

Stick it on ebay,you may be lucky.
If it was a weber twin choke as fitted to 1600gt engines,it would definately worth ebaying it.

regards mark

 

Was found on a lot of CVH engines people used to slate them but they used to be able to run a car very well if set up properly but a twin choke webber was a far better option

 

quick quick

bin it as fast as fucking possible!!


HORRID HORRID PILE OF SHITE!!

lol

std fit on cvh from around the mid 80s (as the boxes says!)

 

Yep deffo a worn out ol vv carb

A, That's not a straight fit anyway as the adaptor plate is missin
B, Peeps wanted webers to replace their wanky vv's, never the other way round
