[QUOTE="starbiscuit, post: 617363, member: 18416"] Just wondering if there's any interest in this. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/V693NnyR/IMG-20190818-102843470.jpg[/img] It's off a June 1970 bus, stock single-port Solex manifold with no vacuum take-off. Until I replaced it recently, I was running with a blanking plate in each of the heat riser flanges because the pre-heat pipe is rusted through in the sections where it sits below the intake pipe (see pic below). Due to years of collecting moisture I guess. Probably both sides of the centre section. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/gJGgN75V/IMG-20190818-102908960.jpg[/img] Anyway, I don't know if it's useful or repairable; I don't have welding equipment or skills needed. I considered just rust-treating it and clagging the gap with exhaust paste but there must be a better way. I wanted a vacuum spigot to add a servo, so I replaced it and this one is spare / scrap. Free to anyone interested and who will cover the postage (I have no estimate for that) Cheers, Rob [/QUOTE]
