Default Carb for a 1.7 340 needed.

Hi Guys,

We've got lots of problems with the wife's 1.7 340, I've narrowed down the major issues to the fuelling. I've stripped it down and cleaned it up with no improvement. I think we need a new (to us) carb.

So has anyone got a carb from a running engine?
I'm in Kent, so postage may be required...

Thanks for the reply, but I sourced one last night for £50.
It did sort the problem out though.

Hi there I was wondering if you knew if the carb from the 340 would fit the 440? as my carb is playing up and would be good to have one

~Thanks

I'm sorry but it won't fit due to a different fitting size, I will have a look for you to see if we have one for a 440, what year is the car? engine size?
