I have the later style twin SUs used on 140s on my Amazon.

I have heard that the ones with double butterfly valves are a real pain to keep in order, and my car certainly can't keep its idle properly. It starts off fine at cold and then once warm, the revs rise high each time I stop the car at lights for example. I've hand the linkages lubed.

Do others have problems with the double butterflies and can anyone post a picture of how to identify these carbs so that I can check whether mine are indeed these ones? Thanks. Tom
