Original description:
Fully restored Solex 26 vfis Carburettor for 25hp VW engines.

Completely stripped and all components were subjected to a four part chemical cleaning process which is the only effective way to remove dirt and corrosion from the internal circuitry as well as restoring the castings to their original appearance. Mating faces were re-machined to ensure flatness. The throttle spindle housing was re-bushed using P.T.F.E. lined glacier type bushes and line reamed to correct tolerance.
Steel components were de-rusted and inhibited and Brass components are chemically brightened.

Re-assembled using all new wearing components, i.e:

Throttle spindle
Float needle valve
Throttle plate
Volume/Air screw
Throttle plate screws
Diaphragms
Metering needle
Seals and washers
Jet Ancillaries
Gaskets

Any other components found to be faulty were replaced. All internal components were adjusted and set as per manufacturer's specification.

Engine tested to ensure correct functioning of the following:-

Fuel level, Idle circuit, Choke mechanism, By-pass circuit, Pull down and fast-idle operation, Progression circuit, Correct throttle operation, Main circuit, Correct response to mixture adjustment, Pump circuit.

£180 plus £5.50 UK postage.
