I have a 1500 midget that has a manual chock weber dgv 32/36 carburator. I bought the car and it came with the weber carb. Does anybody have the installation instructions for this type of carb they can post or email me?

I have already looked at redline website which the pictures are hard to read and don't have a whole lot of detail for text of instruction.

I am hoping someone has an electronic (or a scanned in) copy they can either post or email me. I want this info for future reference and to have to make sure everything is how it is supposed to be installed in the car.
 
You can get a good bit of information on the Pierce manifold site as well. That is where I got most of mine. I'll see what I have when I get home tonight. It was a simple conversion. I think the only think I had to fabricate was the linkage for the throttle and a plate for the return spring. The return spring on the throttle shaft isn't strong enough to completely close the butterflies with everything installed. The setup is pretty straight forward. Google "weber" and "lean best idle" and you will find it.

thanks.
I already have the info for setting up best lean idle.

I am also want info on the complete installation (linkages, hose connects, etc.)
 
A few of us have done the same conversion... if you search "Weber" and/or DGV / DGAV / DGEV in the BCF archives (top right-hand corner of your screen) you will find threads with component diagrams, setup instructions, etc.
 
Here is the only paper work that came in the box with my conversion kit. Hope it helps. It was too big to post directly to this site.
