Got another weber today

Featured Replies

Well I just got a weber carb today from a guy who had one for sale off of a BMW 2002. The carb is the 32/36 DGAV. I got it for $30 so I think I got a good deal.Will the DGAV work correctly on a suby engine? I just wanted to make sure it wasn't all backwards like the DFAV.The carb I got needs some cleaning cause it has a good layer of gunk on it and needs a rebuild.:)

Looks like its electric.Has that little brass tab connector on the side.Also it must be a pretty old school carb cause when I pulled it apart it has the brass float.Is it a good idea to change to the plastic?(Float doesn't have any leaks)

You have a DGEV (the E is for electric, A is for water choke). The G means the bellcrank is on the right-hand side of the carb (from driver's perspective) which is where you need it for a Subaru. The brass floats are standard in the Weber, because they don't absorb gasoline and lose their setting over time. You got a good deal. A rebuild kit goes for about $25 online.Depending on the difference in application and altitude, you may need to rejet the carb. There's a good tech page at www.redlineweber.com.

Thanks for the tip.Ya I definately need to rejet it.Had some corrosion inside from sitting for so long.(White powder)I have it apart and I am cleaning it and its cleaning up well.I forgot to add earlier it is a DGAV but converted to electric.I am pretty amazed how simple they are compared to a hitachi.Kinda reminds me of the carbs I had on dirtbikes and snowmobiles.

When you rejet it, pay attention to the air corrector jets. They play an important part in getting it set up right.

I thought of something else that might be helpful. I used the stock carb's bellcrank and trimmed some metal off of it so it would work on the Weber. It was a lot easier than fabricating a new one.
