SH1/18 carb on a series 2

Postby 507VBH » Sun Jan 10, 2016 10:28 pm

For some reason my series 2 Li150 has a knackered looking SH1/18 carb rather than the standard MB19 BS7. Does anybody know if these two carbs fit the same inlet manifold?

I put this question in the Carburettors forum so apologies if either of these posts is in the wrong place!

Cheers

The two carbs have a 27.5mm clamping diameter.

Hi,
As long as you have the longer inlet manifold for the series 2, (a shorter series 3 inlet will have the carb snagging the fuel tap lever).
I'm doing a similar changeover, all seems well with fitment.
Regards,
Ivor.
