No power brake booster on weber kit

Featured Replies

So, on my new weber/redline kit I see the instruction mention something

 

about a power brake booster fitting built into the top adapter plate. Mine

 

does not have one. Did I get the wrong kit? Also I see on the carb a

 

vacume advance fitting and a plugged hole for the EGR Port. I have a CA

 

emmision car with two vac advance units on the distributor. I read

 

someplace that with the weber I plumb the vac advance port to the fitting

 

closest to the distributor, right? And as for the EGR, do I need it? If so

 

does anyone know if the carb is threaded under the copper plug. Or what

 

the thread pitch is?

 

Thanks

Mike

Brake booster nipple is on the manifold and the Weber adaptor for Subaru's does not have or need one.

 

You don't need the EGR. Just don't hook it up.

 

Run a new vacuum line from the ported vacuum nipple on the carb to the vacuum advance nipple that pulls on the timing advance plate in the distributor the most when you suck on the line. Leave the other one open to atmosphere.

If you try to un-screw the egr port on the weber carb you'll see its really a tiny screw in the tip of the nipple for your egr. Simple.
