Re: [VintageLambo] Source for carb kits DCOE 20/21?

Hi Aaron, I would think GTCP would have the kits. One bit of info:There are several kits out there for the 40DCOE carbs. The most basic is one that contains little more than gaskets and a new needle valve. The other one has those items plus the parts to repack the linkage ball bearings. The best kit (obviously the most expensive) also includes the calibrated float assembly (the floats used in our carbs are considered a calibrated item). If you run into any problems or have questions during your rebuild, contact me and I can walk you through. In my 30 years as an owner, I have rebuilt the carbs quite a few times (as you might imagine). Jack aaron arnold wrote: Hi guys - Any sources for the carbs kits, Chad? GTCP phone#?

This is one for the archives! I had an "interesting" weekend fixing a fuel leak at the pump union on my 400. I ended up with a broken banjo bolt and me soaked with premium gas(I work in open air - NO sparks, no open flames, so I"m still here to talk about it!). Fortunately, Dave at GTCP said he has a good used banjo bolt for me. When I get it all back together, I will post a note about it. I learned some intesting lessons that I will share. Jack
