Default Engine 253 VIN 3052

Hey Everyone,

my name is Christian and I am the happy new owner of #3052.

First it ran great, but after some miles the carbs started to overflow and I had to toe her home. There was some dirt in the carbs and the fuel filter, so I took them apart and cleaned everything.

I noticed that the pumps were not connected to the throttle linkage. Although on many pictures of other cars they are, some people say they weren't when the car was new.

I have Solex 32 PBI-6 on top of my engine. Can anyone help with a jetting chart or/and a workshop manual for the carbs. I have only the engine manual and the carbs are not looked at in detail.

Thanks a lot
Christian
