Carby re-builders in Brissy?
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

carby rebuild
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.
