Last year at a swap meet I bought a pretty ordinary looking Weber for about $10. I have had it sitting in the box at home since then and looking for an easy project to do during our recent hot weather, I thought I would clean it up & see if it could be used. As you can see from the photos, it was very dirty & hadn't seen any action for some time so a great deal of carbie cleaner, wire brushing & cleaning were necessary. I had a few spare parts from previous jobs so I was able to replace what was necessary but I still need a choke pull off diaphragm. They are available so I will keep looking around for one at a reasonable price. The whole carbie looks a lot better & I may use it if I can score a good manifold.
If you are rebuilding a similar carbie, this is an excellent forum article that shows photos each step of the way. It is one of the best articles I have come across.
