Why do you think the carb needs replacing?

Mine had a weber 34 single barrel but I changed it for a twin 32/34 iirc.
A couple of pics of the carb would be helpful with the air filter removed, all carbs are stamped with a number to id them.
How do you know its a weber & not a solex or zenith or other.

Mines is long gone
I only have oil burners now. It did totally change the way it drove, especially on the hills quite thirsty as well.

I also ran an SU on mine (2.25). 2.5 was never fitted to a Series, so there probably is no correct or factory answer.
Thanks folks

This is what a 2.5 petrol should have on it:

You will need the right inlet manifold to go with it too.

Are you sure you have a 2.5 and not an original 2.25 ?
