Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) You Shall Close that Water port, as I explained in my Weber Swap Writeup, Here: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/71510-ideas-on-swaping-a-weber-carb-on-ea82%C2%B4s/ Either with Cold Welding Compound, or Aluminium Welding (As I Did) or you can make a Thread using Helicoil and close it with the Thread of a Headless Screw, ... (etc) ... but there shall not be Water Flow on that area, anymore; with a Weber Carb. (by the way, I think that I already answered your Weber Questions -including this one- in another Weber Carb thread of yours) Kind Regards.

Gloyale Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 im talking about the hole where the water reached the base of th carb i have a gasket that has a hole in it for the hitachi but the gasket i used when i mounted didnt Yeah.....we understand. What Loyale2.7 was saying is to close that hole with JB weld. Fill it and file it flat. use a regular base gasket provided. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazomatic Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I had the same problem Lacy, fifuring that coolant needed to be there. mounted the weber and....coolant leak! I drilled and tapped the hole, and used an allen head pipe plug, then leveled it off with JB weld. Done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
