Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
I have found a company that are able and willing to do a production run of Main jets and Air Corrector jets for the solex 32 Dis Carb'. These will be made to the exact spec of the original items using genuine Renault part drawings.
Depending on the level of interest the price should be around £2.50 per jet.
They will be available in the following sizes-
Main- 1.2mm, 1.25, 1.3, 1.35, 1.4.
A/C- 1.00, 1.05, 1.10, 1.15, 1.20, 1.25.
I am just trying to gauge a level of interest in these jets so i know how many to have made. The more i order the cheaper they will be. If you would be interested in buying some, post up below with what size and how many so i know what to order.
Thanks.

Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
would this maybe an idea for the club shop to get a bulk, and then throw some £££ on top, i guess at least then we have the correct jets for years to come.
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
i think that weber and pierburg carbs jets fit the solex carb....so you are bound to have jets for a good few years yet.

Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
Sounds good to me let me know.

They'll be able to supply whatever i ask for, obviously if you wanted it bigger than the sizes ive listed you could just drill them out, but if you want smaller let me know and ill add the sizes to the drawing.
Why, what sizes are you thinking of dude?
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
I'm interested in a large selection of them, need to stock up on them
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
Thanks mate :)
1.1mm & 1.15mm main.
Probably cheaper & easier to source a jet bored to that size, rather than trying to find the relevant drill-bit size.
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
Interested too............:D
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
It is always good to have some spare parts on the shelf...
I'm also interested. (probably the delivery will be expansive)
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
Yes please, mains:
1.2, 1.25, 1.3, 1.35
A/C:
0.9, 0.95, 1.0

Stu,
The mouth and chunk boy should have (or in the process of) contacting you. let me know if they dont so i can kick arse!!:D
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
Yeah Matt, he's been in touch.
To all those who have asked for 0.9mm A/C's, sorry, the smallest i had made was 1.0mm, however due to demand i am currently getting a price for some making (along with 0.95 A/C's and smaller size mains, MART!!)
PLEASE NOTE- I HAVE NOT GOT ANY 1.25mm MAIN JETS LEFT IN STOCK (NOT MANY 1.2's OR 1.0 A/C's LEFT EITHER), IF YOU ARE WANTING SOME PLEASE STILL LET ME KNOW AND IF DEMAND IS HIGH ENOUGH I WILL GET SOMEMORE MADE, THANKS

i cant see you getting stuck with them. why is the club shop not fronting the cash on things like this. seems a shame members have to do all the hard work when there is money in the pot for things like this.
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
mine are cool too, id take a few others just so i dont have to drill and kill other size jets..
i have loads of old jets but there all butchered:crap:

I wanted them in the club shop, it would have have worked out cheaper for members that way. Buy more volume=get more discount. But a few committee members didn't want them in the shop, waste of club funds apparently...................

Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
i really dnt see how they woud be, there defo something that would sell

the shops sh1t and has nothing worth having and we finally get a good item and its refused. steves dials, your jets, scoffs mounts all good items that sold out rapidly. either way i got the parts i wanted but it doesnt seem fair the risk should go on the guy who has taken the time to produce, promote and distribute them for no great profit if any was even made.

I don't think for one minute think that Clee wouldn't support Stu's efforts as he's always been behind everything I did with the dials but I am surprised to hear that the club didn't want them to go in the shop??
Anyone else want a game?

-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
i didnt mean clee denied them and was not pointing the finger at him.
if stu says the comitee was not 100% behind his jets then its not 1 mans decision on what goes in and out of the shop. the club is hardly skint and whats 200 quid out of the funds for somthing which will sell.
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
-
Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
1 other thing, its a pain for the parts to be shifted to clees house, him to store it, pack it up and flog it on for a item which is a limited run. so in stus case if hes happy to sell the item then leave it to him but atleast drop him some funds to ease the pressure on having to buy them all at once, same as the dials steve made. im sure if guys could have afforded to have more made and sit on them for a while you would have?

Should start a 'serious' thread on it. Some new blood with fresh ideas is never a bad thing in helping a club keep ahead of the game.

+1:agree:

Re: Brand new Solex carburettor jets available!
We (as the club) need to seriously start looking at reproducing parts which are becoming extinct. The less parts we have the more cars are broken, less club members, less money in the fund, no national day = dead club in that order, unless the meg sport lot take us over! Now i support anyone that can get stuff reproduced and the club 'must' support this above the need for anything else. Yes its expensive reproducing stuff in small amounts, and yes its a pain someone has to keep the stock, but im sure with some serious thought and help from as many of the engineers and the companies they work for in the club, we could get a list together and work through some of the probables.
:agree:
