Skip Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Sorry Ratty, I inadvertantly deleted you orig. I am installing a DGAV 32/36 weber onto a stripped ea81 intake manifold, and so far, I have mounted the carb... need to figure out how to mount the linkage! and how to fix the cable connector from binding up on the carb itself anyone have a ready made throttle cable holder thingy majigy? The mount on the carb is the one from the Hitachi, just remove it and with a small washer spacer put it on the DGAV For the throttle cable holder, see Camerons artical, it is just a flat piece of steel or AL with some holes in it. Looks like this Here is the link to his excellent artical http://homepage.powerup.com.au/~camncath/retrofitting_the_weber_dgav_32.htm Don't for get to find T's for the H20 lines, as you say you have the DGAV (Agua Valve) model, I like using the DGEV (Electric Valve) no messing with coolant lines. Hope this helps and again sorry for the deletion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Skip... Mind if I grab this for the USRM?? -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted September 9, 2003 Author Share Posted September 9, 2003 Brian, the pict was from Cameron's site for retrofitting the 32/36 We sure could use a documented proceedure for both EA81's and EA82's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Yeah, i cant get ahold of Cameron. But i dont think he'd mind if we at least linked to that on the USRM. Mick also has some good information regarding Weber installation. Pix are already on the USRM. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 I would write up the procedure for the EA81 if you want. I have hi-res pictures of the official weber kit paperwork too... GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 Many of the DGAV's have been refitted with the electric choke - I see LOTS of them on ebay that turn up this way. Seems to be weber that is doing it. I bought a brand new kit, and it has DGAV stamped right on the side of the carb, but it is electric. Very strange that they wouldn't follow their own nameing convention. If I were them, and cared about the customers sanity, I would grind off the DGAV, and put a sticker on it.... or just leave it blank. Nothing at all would be less confusing than leaving it there. Course - that's not the only issue I have with weber's "kit". They have terrible instructions that are generic (ie: not vehicle specific), they aren't jetted correctly, it comes with the wrong size air filter, The holes in the adapter, and the manifold don't line up, etc. I could overlook one or two of these things, but I would have rather paid an extra $100 for a better thought out kit. I won't buy one again. I'll buy rebuild kits, and adapters, and find the correct jetting myself. And I'll still save money to boot. The weber itself it s a wonderful carb, and the engineering is very good. But the group of yahoo's they must have designing their kits needs a good kick in the head.
