Samurai Sport SU carb wanted
Posted: Fri Jan 08, 2010 4:26 pm
Hi all.
I always wanted a Samurai when they were new but only just got around to buying one last summer.
It ran fine all summer and into the autumn but started causing problems a few weeks ago.
The engine runs OK when cold but will not idle at all when warm. It is on it's second ( at least) Aisin carb.
The car is a 1992 Spanish 1298cc Samurai Sport which is apparently an unusual model combination.
It's been too cold to take the carb off but I think I will repalce it with an HIF44 SU.
I need to get the car to idle properly so that I can take it for an MOT
The steering is very vague but I don't know whether this is normal or a fault. I have tightened down the steering box screw which has improved it a bit.
Does anyone have an SU carb and fittings for sale please?
