Re: Weber Carb

After going about changing the water-pump

Pulling out the thermostat.

Im still having heating issues with my Samurai. Is this the Radiator?

Do they get clogged up?

Re: Weber Carb

would you remember the channels the water pipes take now after the change-over.

It seems engine isn't cooling right ever since i did the change.

I suspect the water-pump, but just thought id double check the above incase I made an error.

Re: Samurai work

Thanks for that lesson Luke. Those things can be confusing if you never tackle them.
Mine is all standard, so for the tyres Albert has attached above, I presume new wheels have also to be bought.
Therefore the studs need to align am I right? Or are most wheels standard spacing?

Re: Sam's Samurai Project

Magnificent.

Is there much work in changing an engine, Id love to mine one day. For something with injection.
Are there things to look out for? Mounts etc.

Thanks
Graham.

Samurai work

Got my new Weber Carb installed on my SJ413 and she's purring now.

Im in restoration mood.. Can window blades be changed - How so.

I don't understand tyre sizes either if some good soul could spell out what is required when deciding on a change.

Thanks

Re: Weber Carb

hmm, Im after buying a weber from a dealer here. I wonder if it starts to cut out in places wouldn't I be entitled to a refund under warranty?

seems strange a carb flooding itself like this.
thought weber would have rectified this or simply stop producing them?

Re: Wheel spacers - good/bad?

(!) Light I think it was.
Brake fluid might make sense as I did front calipre there recently. But only on the left turns? weird huh.

Any way, I'll top her up and bleed it again.
Thanks all.
