Everyone with 1 Barrel Solexes--info for ya

[Mike Self]

Just discovered that the accelerator pump on my '69 isn't and I was bitterly disappointed--the diaphragm has only lasted 48 years.  Bummer.  

 

After a bunch of poking around I found a source for the diaphragm alone--you don't have to buy the whole kit--it's $5.99 from O'Reilly Auto Parts, made by Walker.  P/N is WLK  260F.  The other places I checked only had the complete overhaul kit for $45-60...but Rock Auto has a complete kit on closeout for $13.10--and only one left.  Go for it!

 

cheers

Thanks, Mike.

 

Also, if you are fortunate enought to own a single barrel sole with an automatic choke, W&N has the pump for the choke at about $130 :), so if you do not want to deal with that, send me you carb and I will put it to good use.

There must have been a run on them!
