Hi, new user, long time Landy owner.
Replacing my Zenith with a Weber for a while (well long enough for me to attempt to rebuild the Zenith anyhow) and I'm confused about the need for an adapter plate.
I'm hearing/reading several different stories here
(1) you need an adapter to fit the base of the Weber to the manifold
(2) you can remove the adapter you need from the base of your Zenith and use that for the Weber
(3) you do not need an adapter plate, its a direct swap from one to the other.
Can any more knowledgeable people here advise me what the true scenario is?
I'd rather know before I plumped ~90 for a new carb!
For ppl that like more back story, this is the carb I am thinking of...
WEBER Weber 34ICH Carburettor (WEB EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL OFFER)
Please feel free to shout up if you know another reasonable priced superior product (like a decent <100 Zenith).
And the current card is drinking fuel (even more then it did) running roughly and not really performing as I'd like. But to be fair, its probably decades old. I'm intending to get a repair kit and the Haynes book o' lies on it and have a go refurbishing it.
And, of course, thanks in advance. All comments appreciated!
