340 1.7 carb rebuild

Post by Anthonyrickard373 » 13 Mar 2021 10:15 am

Hey everyone

Could anyone recommend a company, or does anyone on here do any carb cleaning and rebuilds please? Mine could do with a complete rebuild to hopefully solve some running issues

I have the 1.7 340 so Solex carb

Cheers
