Hello Everyone...Its the first time i have posted anything on this forum although i've been registered for some time...sorry about that...my name is Ronny and im from Portugal...Got a 1974 2 dr 120Y...and i have in my in my hands an oportunity to buy a weber 32/36 DGAV...and im need you advice before i buy it to see if it is in order...it came from what im told from a ford 2000cc engine...it was used without the water heating system...First question, in this foto




Is there anything missing in those hole? because only one of them seems to bring i little tube the enters in the hole...what is it? is it necessary?

Second question

On one side we have the pump




On the other side we have this,




which seems to have something missing...what is it? is it a big problem?

Do i need to know any more info about this carb?

Thanks a lot for the help...and i promise ill be more active on the forum from now on...hehe...peace...Ronny...

Hi Ronny,

That looks like a Weber-made carburetor. Most Ford 2-liter OHC engines had a Holley-made version (says Holley in the bottom of the float chamber). Yours also says DGAV on the side, making it a Weber.

For the accelerator pump, the DGV is right-hand carb, and DFV is left hand carb. There is only one pump, never two.

See wiki - DGV

The person who had it, was using it on a ford 2liter...so the jets configuration is wrong...i know it is a weber...hehe...my problem is that it has something missing...on one side we have de accelerator pump...that i know...but on the other side




there are 4 holes to screw some kind of auxiliary body...what is it for? do i need it?

thanks for the attention...

The four holes are for accelerator pump, for left-hand version of Weber 32/36. It is correct to have nothing there.

Hmmmm...but there is a hole in the middle...should i plug it? another question...about those holes in the first foto that i posted...is it normal to have a little metalic tube that goes in to that holeS? i havent paid for the carb yet, so i wanna know if everything is in order...Thanks a lot ddgonzal...i love this forum...

it all looks in order to me, much like mine, but just needing a clean :D

when you go to set up the throttle cable, use the linkage piece from the A series carb, it bolts straight on and works a treat! this is my carb.

Im sorry for my doughts...i just need to confirm everything before i buy the carb...to be sure...i found this foto here on the forum that shows my concern, it is this part of the carb that is missing on mine...what is it? it looks like some kind of vacuum...



just to make shure we are talking about the same thing...im not a carb expert yet so i need some help...and yes i really do need to clean the carb...damn its nasty...hehe...thanks a lot guys...peace...

Anyone knowS?

Hey Ronny_CTS
Its the vacuum diaghphram cover for the pump jet. It's pretty important for richening up the mixture on transition. there is a short j shaped vac hose that goes from it to ported vac on the carb body down below it. It is designed to turn itself on & squirt extra fuel when the vaccum signal drops. Basically the same thing as the pump jets, but vac operated rather than throttle position operated.

well there you go.

i have one of those bits on my A series car, but the weber on my L series doesn't. might be a reason for my hesitation when planting my foot.
