Our Solex 40P11-4 carbs were packed up and shipped off today. They will be restored by what I’m told are the very capable hands of Jim Kaufmann at 356 Carburetor Rescue.
I was very tempted to do a rebuild on them myself with a kit. I was advised by people wiser than me to send these out. People with years of experience have issues with Solex carbs. I guess the shafts and butterflies can be problematic. I would have no way to know if the bases need to be re-machined. This one goes into the reliability column.
