As per title.

I’m having my car sent up to the restoration garage I use end of this month for some recommissioning work after an 8 year sleep. The carbs needed refurbishing then so will need the works now!

Jesus / dequincey kindly sent me a load of info on how to do this some time back but I won’t be in the U.K. until next year and then I won’t have time to do this work myself, thanks to two small boys!

Therefore I’m looking for a specialist who will strip, refinish & rebuild my carbs, ready for my garage to reinstall and set up.

I would recommend that you break loose
of any BMW bias. Call shops that restore
other makes that use Zenith carbs. Like a Porsche 356 or a triumph TR6. They may not do the work themselves, but they know who to contact.

Especially Mercedes, they used virtually identical Zenith models
