2E3 Rant!

[coochiSR]

Mines c**p its constantly on choke unless it decides otherwise!!! Its really annoying cos it seems to be drinking loadsa petrol lately! :@:@:@. Anyone else have this trouble? And can stop it and make it work PROPERLY without kicking it :P, Thanking you all in advance!

[Adam]

Rebuild the auto choke
That'll sort it for a while.

Or fit a manual choke.

Actually, sod that, just fit some 40s,Lol.

[coochiSR]

Thought someone would tell me that!!! And i got told you couldn't rebuild them chokes, but hey obviously you can lol, and how easy is it to do? and how long will it last?

[Adam]

Well, how many miles has your engine done until the choke started playing up?
Thats about how long it should last again.

Altho im not sure how much the kits are/who sells them.

Easy option is a weber 32/34 replacement.

[coochiSR]

I get ya, 90k, and im sure my dad could find 1 with his sources, I thought about that (Weber 32/34) but it the cost, of buying and running, its hard enough atm lol

[Adam]

Running cost probably wont change.
Cost, can get one for ?40/?50.

I sold mine for ?40.

[coochiSR]

Running cost probably won't change!!! You sure (no offence)? And with or without the adpator plate?

Running cost probably wont change.

[Adam]

Without the adaptor, but they aint that much to buy.


The carb is pretty much the same as a Pierburg, so i'd really doubt mpg would be effected. What sort of MPG do you get atm?

[coochiSR]

O goodies! where would i gte adpator from? Don't know, will have to find out and i thought they would just be performance increase, and make it drink more lol

[Adam]

I managed to get nearly 30MPG around town in my T40d 1.4
Including a few full throttle blasts.

I think Webcon sell the adaptors.

[coochiSR]

For some reason i don't think im getting that lol, how many miles to tank? And o okies ill have to find out, webcon.com?

[garyc]

This may be of some help. http://www.novaload.net/forum/showthread.php?t=75958

PM me know if your interested. The adapter plates are about ?30 + vat from Webcon.

[coochiSR]

Cheers garyc but from that advert it comes with adaptor plate lol and i aint got dosh atm but you'll be first person i go to find 1 ;) and Ad, how easy to swap?

[Adam]

The adapter plates are about ?30 + vat from Webcon. Fook me, really? :eek:

The swap is straight forward.
Remove Sr carb, fit adaptor plate, bolt 32/34 onto adaptor plate.
Might need check throttle cable fits first too.

And block off the coolant pipe that goes to the sr carb autochoke.

[coochiSR]

Ooooo that easy??? what about running a manual choke cable??? (or am i being thick) and block them as in stick 2 bolts in the end lol or join them up?

[Adam]

Stick a bolt inthe end of the coolant pipe ye.

Ooo, aye, i forgot about the manual choke.
I think a 1.2carb manual choke cable fits.

[coochiSR]

o okies thanks for all the advice and help!!! and if the throttle cable don't fit (too long or too short) another Nova 1 fit?

[garyc]

You have to remove the studs from the manifold too.

I coulnt believe it when I found out the price of them plates. Theres a cable with mine too.

[Adam]

I dont think the length is the problem, its the end joint on the cable that might not fit.
Iiirc weber 32/34 has a barrel type end. Not sure what the end of a sr cable looks like.

[coochiSR]

Gary :- Coolies well keep it for me then :P and studs from head? why?
Ad :- Mine is barrel shaped as such, cylinder type shape on the end of cable

[Adam]

He means the studs out the inlet, the three that hold the original carb on.

[coochiSR]

oooooooooooooooooo lol well i kinda guessed lol, THANKS AD AND GARY!
(Ad i think you've got most helpful 2007 already ;))

[SRI crazy]

just take the cohke flap outa ur pierburg and problem solved lol

[coochiSR]

No choke then!!! :P might do it now though, don't need choke in this weather!
