Hey everyone, The 1968 02 I've acquired came with twin weber 40's. I've attached two pictures and you'll see on one carb it says '5K' and the other it says '5L' does anyone happen to know what this code/number means? I've seen other twin weber 40's and in that same exact spot they have a 5+ digit number instead. Are these carbs an older production? A newer production? I'm going to clean them up and rebuild them. What would be the best route to do so? Any tips? Appreciate the feedback! Preston

Day ~59 – 62 About 4 days of work Boring stuff Tidied up some more wiring and got things sorted out so that the battery was ready to be connected. I also installed the b-pillar gaskets and rear windows, with freshly painted window brackets… boooooring. Engine/Transmission/Front Sub-Frame Reunion I didn’t want to put the motor back in only to find out it was leaking from the oil pan because of the cork seal. So, I decided to change the cork seal for the paper version (with some RTV gasket sealant) as recommended by some members (BMW2002FAQ). I inst

Posted from nomads2002.blogspot.com Intake Manifold DIY I'm frugal. It is more accurate than what my wife calls me: "cheap". It means that I don't like to spend money, but when I do I want a good return on my investment. I went ahead and purchased a used Weber 38/38 carburetor as an upgrade. While I have a stock cam and compression I may upgrade in the future. The Weber has larger throttle plates so it will not fit on my stock two-hole intake manifold. What follows is my "Frugal" DIY way of modifying the stock manifold work. While not "machine shop pretty" I believe that it

Having spent some time sorting out my ignition, I was pretty happy with how my car is running. The idle is a lot more stable than it was before but I can still detect a slight miss fire occasionally. Coincidentally to finishing the ignition I noted that I had a problem with the water choke on my 32/36. This was normally as regular as clockwork but for some reason had stopped engaging. I took the air cleaner off to watch the operation of the choke and while I was there I looked down into the primary choke. When the throttle was opened a fine mist of fuel was present as the engines vacuum p

Tesoro getting a heart transplant.... Oct 24, 2014
Lisa.02P posted a blog entry in Lisa.02P with her Tesoro & Derby
Tesoro is also in the process of getting heart transplant... First you see it... now you don't! I actually "test drove" 3 other 02s before deciding which "heart" would be the best fit. There was the 32/36, the 38/38, and the fuel injected tii engine. Tesoro originally had a 32/36 Weber when I bought him... but everything about his original set up was "tiresome"... The performance wasn't there. But it wasn't just the performance either... as mentioned in the earlier blogs, the whole engine and drivetrain needed some major TLC. And it's gonna get it! The plan is to upgrade to a 38/38 Weber wit -
Gettin' er goin' The Eurokracy car show takes place the week before the Canadian Formula 1, Grand Prix. Now that I have been invited/accepted in the show in shine, it was time to make sure my car was up for it, and the long drive. I hadn’t yet started the car with the new Spanish DCOEs but with 10 days until the show I was feeling confident. So here’s where the new trouble starts. Show (minus 2 weeks) Documented in my “help” thread (starting on page 5) https://www.bmw2002faq.com/forums/topic/183166-help-getting-it-going-timing-weber-dcoe/?do=findComment&comm

It's been a while... The ’02 was stored in my garage during the unpleasantly long winter, here’s a shot prior to putting the cover on. Winter/Spring A few semi-exciting off season acquisitions. New pair of 45DCOEs from Redline (allautomotive) 123Ingition Tune+ distributor, in on the group buy. New rain gutter trims A KMPH speedometer from Netherlands Also during the winter/spring I took care of a few tasks to help things progress. I re-re-upholstered my sun visors, I didn’t like my previou

This was a SCCA Track night in america event at Portland International Raceway. There was three 20 min sessions and this is from the last. I was pushing my car harder during the last race, and I had a lot of fun. My 2nd gear is going out so I tried not to shift down, but every so often I'd shove it in there. It needs a few more tuning sessions as the new carbs were very recently installed. I am driving my daily 1974 BMW 2002 that has a dual Weber 40 DCOE, long tube 4-1 headers, stainless exhaust, and a few other things that you can find out on my wheelwell page.

Got my new 32/36 DGEV in the mail the other day and want to tackle the installation this weekend. Seeing that the article here on the forum has an issue with its photos – is there another resource you all can recommend? Like, a really simple step-by-step guide on how to install and adjust? I can probably figure out the installation pretty easily, but am worried I'll get frustrated fast when it comes to the jetting and stuff afterwards.

I would like to introduce myself to my fellow 2002 owners. I very recently helped my son purchase his first car that wasn’t a family hand-me-down: it’s a 1975 ’02 with a 3-speed automatic. The car is in overall “good” condition: it starts, runs and drives, it has no obviously intrusive rust, and it’s been repainted at least once. The driver side rear fender has a couple of very small shallow dents. The seats are good, but the dash has a lot of cracks. The odometer works, but the clock doesn’t/ It came with a thick folder of original manuals, service records and receipts covering the first twenty years of the car’s life. It was fastidiously maintained during this time by its first two owners. The first owner added an aftermarket air conditioning system that included a single radiator for both engine coolant and refrigerant. I’m happy the subsequent owners kept and transferred all the original documentation, but unfortunately none adding their own documentation to it. The fellow I bought it from said he installed the Weber 38/38 DGEV. He also said he replace the strut cartridges, but he obviously did not replace any other suspension components. The car steers VERY hard, and the inside of the driver’s side front tire is badly worn. All of the steering joints have some play in them. So, the first order of business is replacing the steering and suspension components. This leads to my first question for the FAQ members: What is your experience with BMW or OEM (Lemforder?) vs. aftermarket parts (Moog, OCAP, Meyle, etc.)? Specifically, are there any aftermarket brands to avoid? Thanks, and I look forward to sharing my knowledge gained with the forum members as my son and I gradually restore this terrific car!

So I'm trying to confirm the float level setting on my Spanish 40 DCOEs. As I understand, I'm looking for 14 mm at the bottom of the float (with floats hanging from vertical cover). My floats each have a little plastic nub right where the 14 mm dowel starts to squeeze between the float and the cover. Where is the dowel supposed to be for the measurement?

Looking to trade in my dual 45 weber dcoe 152 carbs for your dual weber 40s. Both carbs are still in the car and running strong but after going to the swap and show, I've decided to go smaller. 1 of the carbs was rebuilt 2 years ago and other was just rebuilt last week by a professional. Looking for someone who is currently running the carbs without any issues and wants to bigger in size. If you are local, even better. Feel free to contact me and we can meet up. thanks, Daniel

I have a pair of 45 dcoe Weber Carburetors made in Spain. They were rebuilt less than 2 years ago for a 1968 BMW 2002 M10 engine. I am including the 2 Canon intake manifolds and a top "rod mount" throttle linkage. Carbs are like new and work perfectly. I decided to go with a different carb that doesn't require so much tuning.

Set of Webers that came off my car for sale with manifolds and accessories. These have been on my car off and on as I wanted more power for various driving schools. They were removed 4 months ago. I had lots of trouble tuning them for a stable idle - might be me or it could be the carbs need some work/rebuild. They ran great with good power, but not for city driving for me. I've gone back to a 38/38 downdraft. Included is the water bypass tube and one of the hoses needed as well as the linkage. The upper water neck housing with the temp sender has been cleaned and painted. There is another one housing included in fair condition. I also have a small box of weber parts that will be includes, some seals, nuts, clips, etc. There are some fairly coarse steel mesh filters that work great in our cars confined space. Please keep in mind these carburetors are tired and may need some work to run optimally. Price does not include shipping.

Can any Weber experts identify the sidedrafts in these pictures? They came off a '69 2002 that had been sitting a long time. I'm hoping someone can tell approximately what era they're from and whether or not they're Italian. Thanks, Michael
