CHip Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 The fibre washers in the top hats on my weber carbs need replacing (they are currently black and shrivelled). Does anyone know what size I need to get? Do I need a special type? I want to have a ring round this afternoon, but I didn't get chance to measure the top hats last night. ----------------------------------- Black grads racing 1.6 x-flow - rear facing flamethrower as standard Se7en spotting here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philwaters Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Chip, you could try Hampshire Bolt & Tool in Basingstoke - can't remember the name of the road, but they are next to Plumb Centre near the A33 / A339 ringroad junction... They have all sorts and are normally helpful - could try taking one in there (if you have an old one that is) Another option is Brin Services on 01727 856989 Phil Waters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevefoster Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Got some in my spares box. Pop round... You can cut out your own from thick gasket paper - this doesn't shrivel in petrol vapour like the fibre.

CHip Posted January 6, 2006 Author Share Posted January 6, 2006 Thanks Norman, I found a PDF version of the same thing somewhere else.
