Once it was installed, I started the truck and sprayed a bunch of starter fluid below the carb to test for leaks. If the adapter fit poorly and air was leaking it would have caused the engine to surge in RPMs, but everything was tight. Minus the underlying fuel supply issue which I'll post to a sepa...

9.jpg Second issue with the linkage was the lower arm connection point, when I assembled everything and depressed the accelerator pedal the carburetor would not go to wide open throttle. But this was an easy fix, it just required a hole getting drilled about 1" aft of the stock hole location b...

Hooking up the stock throttle linkage required two modifications. First, spacing the throttle actuator arm away from the body of the carburetor, since it was binding against the butterfly linkage assembly. I ended up using a bunch of washers to accomplish this but it is not my long term solution. I'...

Second issue was the flared portion of the Trans Dapt adaptor did not leave room for the nut to turn on the stud closest to the engine. So, I used a combination of a dremel and a metal rasp file to attack the material on the side of the adaptor. The light and angle is off in the picture, but it requ...

The first issue I came across were the mounting studs sat at 1" tall. The Trans Dapt adapter flares at the same height preventing it from seating flat against the manifold. So, I threaded the nut down 3/4" (seen on the stud on the Left side) and used it as a guide to cut the top 1/4" ...

Everything put back together, ready to go on the Patrol.

Internet search provided a step by step guide to disassembly of a similar Weber model, which allowed me to break down, clean, and replace the parts that came in the rebuild kit.

Before I installed the Weber it required a rebuild due to sitting for so long, I picked up a rebuild kit for $30 bucks from a local dune buggy shop. The components were simple enough, some gaskets, diaphragms, and replacement springs/washers...but they only provided an exploded diagram of the carbur...

Parts used were a used Weber 32/36 DGEV, and a Trans Dapt adapter purchased off the internet. The adapter I used in the pictures fit with some grinding, but I would recommen...
