Yes, I have a 91 syncro westy and&nbsp; if you search the archives (either
mstebbins@hotmail.com or malcolm.stebbins@msvu.ca) you'll find my story.
I thought that I had a Weber carb but somebody misspelled weber as SOLEX.&nbsp;
It's a 2 barrel, progressive with an Bosch 009 dist, with centrifugal spark
advance and points/condenser with a K&amp;N filter.&nbsp; I get plenty
of power and about the same mileage as FI folks with syncro westies.&nbsp;
I'm happy with carbs as it is now a "one wire engine".&nbsp; I am about
to add the pertronix elect ignition. <A HREF="http://www.pertronix.com/">http://www.pertronix.com/</A> .&nbsp;
MOre info if you need it.&nbsp; Malcolm
<p>Any one out there run carbs on their vanagon instead of FI?&nbsp; I
am running dual 34 Webers on a newly rebuilt engine, and they lack power.&nbsp;
As anyone ran anything else?&nbsp; Adam Puzerewski</html>
