Multiple SU carb questions 140-160

I bought mine from Joe Curto who was very helpful.




From: http://home.earthlink.net/~goodspeeds/NEEDLES.HTM
SU HS6 Carburetor Needles used on Volvo B18 and B20 engines.
Dimensions in inches. Drawings not to scale.
________________________________________
Replacing the needle in an SU carburetor with a thinner one will result in a richer fuel/air mixture. As you can see from the picture, the KD needle provides the richest mixture, and the ZH the leanest. Always use the same kind of needle for each carburetor in multi-carb setups. Stock needles are best for stock engines in street use. To purchase SU carburetor needles in the USA, call Joe Curto, 718-762-7878.
