Hi Guys, Can anyone recommend a company who can strip and overhaul a Dellorto 18mm carb. Thanks.

Hi Andy,

It really isn't all that difficult to do yourself and you can get all the parts you need at Eurocarb:-

If you are not confident, let us know whereabouts you are and some kind member may offer to help.

All the best,

Rich'

Yes probably a good idea that, there are lots of places that will do that.

An ultrasonic bath is a useful alternative to vapour blasting.

It's a better alternative. Vapour blasting is unlikely to clear any dirty galleries. In a previous job we used ultrasonic baths to remove chemically formed glass inside tiny welded pipe manifolds. Worked brilliantly.

Thanks for the replies. Great idea plus a relative of mine has one of those ultrasonic baths.
