Find your carburetor's original settings

I offer a service to find your carburetor's original calibration, intended for classic car enthusiasts who wish to restore their vehicle to its original configuration.

Over time, many carburetors have been modified: replacement of jets, approximate adjustments, various adaptations, or successive interventions carried out over the years. It is therefore not uncommon to find a carburetor today whose settings no longer correspond to the period specifications.

Finding the original calibration provides a reliable starting point for:

• restarting a classic vehicle
• mechanical restoration
• carburetion diagnostics
• smoother engine operation
• consistent settings before fine-tuning

What does the search include?

Depending on the available information, the search can identify the original characteristics of your carburetor, including:

• main jet
• air corrector jet
• idle jet
• emulsion tube
• venturi / choke
• needle valve
• known original configuration

This service mainly concerns Weber and Solex carburetors, subject to available documentation.

Required information

To perform the search, please provide me with:

• the make, model, and year of your vehicle
• the exact carburetor reference
• if possible, a photo of the carburetor's plate or marking

The reference is usually engraved on the base or body of the carburetor.

Example photo:

Weber 28/36 DCD 1

A useful service before restoration or adjustment

This service is particularly beneficial before carburetor overhaul, jet replacement, or complete adjustment, to ensure a coherent technical basis suited to your vehicle.
