Synopsis

This edition combines two earlier publications:
Weber Carburetors - Volume-1: Theory
Weber Carburetors - Volume-2: Tuning and Maintenance

Additionally the two texts have been revised to give an up-to-date reference on the theory, tuning, and maintenance of Weber Carburettors, forming a distillation of the author's many years of experience, working with Weber carburettors.

Unquestionably preeminent in their field, these celebrated carburettors have been fitted to some of the most exciting and memorable cars and have been more widely used by tuners and modifiers, both for road and competition machinery, than any alternative. The mysteries of why and how they work so well and the practicalities of getting the best from them in any application are explained at length. Light is also shed on the complex interrelationship between the carburettor, the engine, and the other ancillary components.

The author's enthusiasm for his subject comes through, too, so this is no dull textbook: theory is always closely related to actual practical considerations.

Setting the carburettor to suit a particular engine, fault-finding on an existing installation, and the maintenance and repair of older carburettors are all topics which receive detailed attention. Anyone maintaining or restoring a Weber-equipped car, or contemplating a Weber-based conversion, or simply interested in the science of engine performance and tuning, will learn something from these pages.
