Here are a few pics:







It has a wierd thing between the intakes for cyl 3 and 4 that looks like another intake hole. Its not blocked off on the out side but when i poke around inside i dont feel that extra hole.

I had an 1.9L SD in my mk1 and just replaced it with a kjet Gti 1.8, it didn't have injection holes though?

I ran a side draft carbies (weber+passat mani, then later a dellorto+lynx mani) with no problems.

Carby should be stamped etc..

Do you sitll have the carbies and mains?
Would they be an improvement to what ive got?

[dub be good to me]

(EDIT - My prev post was ambiguous weber was downdraft, dellorto sidedraft - sorry!)

Hmm.. it looks diff to my 32/36 DGAV (EDIT - air intakes from filter are square on mine i think), but definitely looks like it has a water choke... Manifold looks similar too..

EDIT - like this

Carby should be stamped with the model number somewhere!
I'd check that out before doing anything else.

If it does turn out you need it, i've still go the weber + passat manifold + airfilter setup (payment just fell through abt 5mins ago!)

i would hazard a guess that that's not a 32/36, but perhaps a 24/24 maybe. a similar downdraught design though.

i had a 32/36 DGV on my old 1.6, went good. should be a nice size on a 1.9 with a zorst.

that carb could be anything - seems to me its a vacuum operated secondary so a little more modern than a DGAV type carb, could be japanese even (or did you say it actually had weber written on it?).

that manifold is very interesting - looks like it could be from a single point injection car, like is run on mk3 CL's and SEAT's, but i'm not going to say thats what it is for sure. its definately not the passat TS manifold though. no way - thats why that adaptor plate has been made up to take the carb (which does have a DGV style bolt pattern.

so that lump must be a torque monster... nice

Look around the rectangular base of the carby where it bolts up, there will be a slightly raised area with some small numbers/letters stamped there.

Thanks guys. It is a webber, if you look at the last picture you can make out the webber logo down the bottom.

I will try and get a part number off it next time.

We have never driven the car because the drive shafts are stuffed.

Im interested in a passat mani and bigger weber. How much benefit would there be from that set up as aposed to this one?

Does anyone have some links to some carbie reading material so i know wtf is going on?

Got the number.

32 DATRA 21/100 E9

Got the number.

32 DATRA 21/100 E9

Seems the were standard for the Fiat 128 1300-1500cc
"A slightly revised Weber 32 DATRA was used on the later 1.3-liter and 1.5-liter engines, gaining extra pollution control devices by the late 1970s."

The only other thing I could find is in Serbian..
http://www.elitemadzone.org/t318094-...EM-Weber-DATRA
and with a little help from google translator, it looks like he was running it on a 91' 1100cc Yugo 60 (must have been one of the last models before the switched to 1300cc) a Serbian made ultra-compact car..

I've really gotta start doing work while I'm at work...

nice one simon. hahhaa

siberian.

Dado, I'd look out for an upgrade

edit: just had a quick squiz on ebay, there are a few options, from rebuilt or brand new units 5-600 bucks, to second hand ones for about half that. if you don't want to fiddle with the carb too much, i'd look out for a re-man'd unit, that way you know that it works!
