Title: Wanted - Single Carb Found, Thanks!
Post by: MiniDave on December 15, 2019, 10:13:28 AM
Looking for a single HS4, can need cleanup/rebuild, prefer it not be totally worn out tho. It's going on my friend Clancy's 1275 in his MOKE.

Lemme know what you have, OK?

Dave,

Let me check my stuff, I believe I have one.  Not sure if I have a spacer or abutment plate.

Cheers,
Michael Playle

Here are a couple pictures of the HS-4 stuff I have.  Make an offer (plus postage) and I will find a box to pack it in and send it.  Just remind me of the address where to send it.

Dave,

Any feedback from Clancy about wanting the carb?  It all fits into a USPS medium flat rate box, so postage would be about $14.35.

Dan responded first, so I'm waiting to see if he has all the stuff like you do, I'll know soon as he lets me know.

The bag in picture marked WZX1099 has a jet for an HIF carb in it. Just in case it's useful.

I let Clancy decide, he chose the one from Michael.....thanks for the info, Mascher....Clancy has friends who can help him set up the carb, so if I can get it to run, that will be my part of it.

Dave,
I have an extra HS4 if you still need one - it was working fine when I took it off of my car when I installed the HIF38.

I haven't been up to the garage lately, so haven't taken any pictures of it yet. 

If you want it, it'll be rather inexpensive + postage (but postage is whatever it'll be) - I need to clear out some stuff for pipe making (yes, handcarved tobacco pipes).

Cheers -

Thanks John, Clancy bought the one from Michael Playle.

I had one of those single piece cast iron intake/exhaust manifolds I gave him, he's going to cut the intake off and have it ceramic heat coated, then he can mount it up on the Moke.

I have no idea why he couldn't mount the twin HS2's he had, even tho the carbs were off a Sprite he has the right manifold and the little rubbers that set the float bowls at the right angle for a Mini, but he said he could not make them fit....

I haven't been back up to his place to see why.

Given that this is just a pit car, the single HS4 should be sufficient, even for his 1275.
