        Hi all,An update on my targa restoration. Over the
weekend, for the first time in 17 years, i got the engine
started – and it sounded alright! Unfortunately, it only ran
for about 30 seconds then died. On inspection the carb was
full to the brim with petrol and was leaking badly from
lower around the carb body – somewhere?. Me thinks, the carb
could do with new gaskets and a bit of tlc.Does anyone know
where to get the rebuild kit for this carb – Solex 36–40
PDSI single?Also, if there are any obvious wear areas i
should check out for whilst i have the thing apart?As
always, any help much appreciated.RegardsFranc
