i was wondering if a weber 32/36 carb without a choke will work fine for my 86 toyota with a 22r. a friend of mine is selling the rebuilt weber 32/36 carb with a one piece adapter plate for $200......i need a new carb because my stock one is crapping out. ive never heard of a weber 32/36 without any type of choke. just want some input so i can decide if im gonna buy it or not. Thanks in Advance.

 

A rebuilt stock carb will work better than any weber carb. They don't like angles and cold starts in the morning will suck without the choke.

Pomaika'i brother.

 

I agree. no choke = really hard start. There should still be a local carb rebuilder in your area (they are getting hard to find). DO NOT get a rebuilt from one of the big chain auto parts joints. They never work properly. You will go through about 3 before you get a decent one. I know a EXCELLENT carb rebuilder if you need a reference.

 

thanks for the info guys. i appreciate it. ill try find a local rebuilder here. if i cant find one, then ill private message you putneysmachine. thanks again guys....

 

what exact parts of the choke are "missing"? like the flap itself, or just the outter parts like the little round plastic cap if it's electric or the piping portion if it's coolant controlled or what?

I ran on 32/36 DGEV on an 88 Isuzu PU that I built from grill to tailgate, and once you get it tuned right it'll scream, but It was more or a street-racer style truck, so I couldn't comment about the angles and how it works, but most carb's don't work well on angles. I guess if you're just gunna go mud'n with it it'll work fine, but the second you try to climb a rock or really steep incline, she'll probably sputter out

The 32/36 series are nice carbs, but are what you could consider their "economy" carbs. They get pretty decent mpg with the 2 different size primary and secondary butterfly valves, and will work great for a stock motor. Once I installed my header, cam, and bored it .30 over, I upgraded to the 38 DGES; more airflow=more power, so long as your motor can move the are... the 38 would probably be too much for a stock motor...

 

the weber carb was manufactured without a choke. so theres no choke on the carburetor at all.

 

reeeeaaaaly...

I wasn't even aware they manufactured and sold any carbs without some sort of choke...

that's kinda... odd...

 

that kinda baffled me too......i never heard of a weber without some kind of choke...

 

I just bought a 32/36 w/ electric choke. Dont you need the provided choke either manual or electric?

 

Mine starts just fine with out a choke. I actually just put a weak spring that keeps the choke flaps 2/3 closed and when you go full throttle they open almost completely.

Also, my ever runs at any angle, I mean any angle. It has nothing to do with the fuel bowl vent or float level. I simply have an aluminum plate in between the two pieces of the carb with 2 gaskets. This simply seals the fuel bowl from the air correctors. The plate is made by a guy in Sumner Washington who runs a Weber carb shop out of his house called carburetors unlimited. It works great, my truck has never had a problem on angles because of it, I was lucky enough to stumble across it when I got my Weber for free, he tried to sell it to redline or whoever, but they thought he was crazy. What's crazy is my 22r with a 32/36 at 45 degree angles running like it's a fuel injected engine
