Post Recommendation for carb overhaul kit.
Hi all.

This is a very low mileage Solex 26/35, so no actual metal wear, so no jets etc required. But it is old so diaphragms etc. will likely be perished.

Where do folks go for a gasket/rubber-bits only kit?

Thanks.

I usually go to ecas for bits

Don't be put off by the P&P looking a bit high as there is usually a refund a few days later.

This doesn't mean parts aren't available elsewhere. :)

Tee-hee!

Yes, I mean the accel diaphragm (and the choke pull-off one too?)

The carb is typically 2CV old, but less than 10k miles. So I'm assuming no actual wear but plenty perished bits...

As has been mentioned:

A few rubbery bits in there.

I'm guessing you have what you need now?
