i have just had my engine tuned and the guy advised me to take the k and n panel filter off as it dont stop carb freeze, says it would be better to get one that sits where the original one does as this prevents carb freeze

"A weber is a better carb than the pierburg unit you have at the moment and gives less hassle. although you will have to convert to manual choke but you get all the cables in the kit.
A lot of people haven't got a clue about how to set a 2E2 carb up"
So I cant get a twin fitted ?
BUT - Your saying the replacement one can be pritty good and if set up properly will do fine? or are you saying the one on here probably isnt set up properly?
Thanks mate

Most people seem to think that the weber replacements are worth the money, they are supposed to perform better and improve fuel consumption, also they are supposed to be easier to set up.
