Hey everyone,

2 Questions for you

Firstly. I am about to reinstall my weber and was wondering what is worth replacing and fixing up? It ran fine when it was in the car previously but whilst out I might as well put a kit through it. How hard is this? I am a bit reluctant to take it apart as I then will have to put it back together. Does anyone know a good place to get a weber refurbished in northern melbourne? Any idea on price?


Secondly. I am removing my vh44 brake booster and a hose runs from the manifold to this ( vaccum). Can I just plug this up with a brass plug like on the other side (see pic)? thoughts? The plug was in the other side but I took it out to paint them.

can you pm me what it cost you minifreak? just a ball park figure.
My build budget has got so over enlarged that it is thinking about rising from the sea and destroying Tokyo. I am now a super tight arse and am trying to save money where ever possible :)
