Carby re-builders in Brissy?
Andy - December 19th, 2003 at 11:32 AM

Anyone know of a good carby re-builder in Brissy for stock Solex (kombi) carbs?

I have used Carb Tech once before and they seemed OK.

Cheers,
Andy

I was told that there was no "real good "solex carb rebuilders up here(not sure about that but...) and was told about"carburettor service co" so I sent mine down to them,it took about a week thats was with postage.$180 down and back and it runs bloody sweet:thumb

240 PARRAMATTA ROAD BURWOOD 2134 PH# 02 97474066 OR 1800451503.
$180 might seem abit much but it goes great and it was done 19months ago.

i used CARBY SERVICES to rebush my twin solex carby throttle bodies $70 for the pair. I then bought a carby rebuild kit from vintage veedub $70 and with the help of the bentley and gregory manuals did the job myself, no problems really just got to be methodical. My 2 litre kombie runs great no flat spots idles good fuel economy good.
