Re: 340 redline
in some citys the government, teached by the EU, created the "umweltzone" only for cars with kathalysator. They think that it is really useful, but the last years it didn`t change the emission. When they startet the "umweltzone" in our city, I couldn't drive with the redline. So I have bought a 940....

Re: 340 redline
i have put it away in a garage because of the "Umweltzone" in Germany. It has no kathalysator.
But now it is back and in May 2018 it will get the "h" Kennzeichen.

1988 340 redline
Hello, after three years of happyness with this great car I must offer this car, because in our city, Marburg, the government issued the environmental zone. My Redline doesn't get the permission to drive in the city yet. I think it is reasonable to offer it for you because I have enough cars to care...

Re: 1.7 B172 Fuel Layout Help
Hello,
thanks MAC, for this help.

Re: 1.7 B172 Fuel Layout Help
Hi MAC, please can you draw how the fuel System looks without the swirl pot? In my 340 GL redline ist a fuel pump with three plugs. One is closed and the swirl pot. My impression is that the swirl pot (boken since yesterday) can be removed an i can take the third plug from the pump for fuel return? ...

Re: solex carb from b172k questions
Hello, Unfortunately the old carb didn't work pleasable. So I decided to remove it. Thankfully I have found a third carb only with the big vent pipe. It should descend from a 440. I mount it and put a tube from the vent pipe to engine mounting. The redline is running so good as new! Best regards Mat...

Re: solex carb from b172k questions
Hi Mac,
this means that the small vent pipe simply goes to the engine mounting
The big one only stays open?
What is the other tube?
Thank you very much!!

Re: solex carb from b172k questions
Great Mac! Thanks for the big overview. Yes I want to repair the old one. But I am confused about the other, because it is sold as an ex-340er carb. About the pipes: the bigger pipe seems to be never in use. Is is rough and dirty. The small one is blank and obviously connected to a tube. Bye Matthias

Carb of a 1,7
Hello,
has anybody already repaired a 1,7`s solex carb?
My engine stumbles slightly when the second system opens (part load transition)
I can`t find any screw to set the second system. What do yo mean?
cheers Matthias
