weber banjo

9xx · Post by **9xx** » Sun Dec 19, 2010 10:52 am

I am looking for a fuel banjo for my weber IDA's - the one with two additional outlets to feed the other chambers.
A small but essential part which seems to be missing from my setup

Any help would be greatly appreciated

If all else fails Matt, you could give Ike at Chatsworth motor spares a call.

If you can get past his sheer pomposity, he does carry an excellent selection of Weber bits.

But charming he is not.

Allegedly.

Thanks, I'll give those a try. Look forward to chatting with Ike.

I've spotted that PMO make a fuel bar to replace the banjo's on Webers for $90 pair - so there's a solution for later on.

I think the weber originals are quite a special shape and not your normal banjo.
My Webers came without them, the only parts missing and that is because they are rare I found. Must have been sold-on...

I ended up with the fuel rails from PMO and excellent they were too.
Mr Parr of PMO is absolutly ace.

Lightening fast service from the USA.

Hey Mike - if you had to describe Eike in one word, what might that be?

'Shite', just guessing.

Did you have a word with Ike then ?

I should add, I was in two minds whether to recommend this chap... it`s a tough call.

There is no doubt he knows his Webers, it`s just his manner is so abrasive.

At the end of the day, my feeling was, if you need a hard to find part for Weber carburetors, he is most likely to either have it in stock or be able to get hold of it it.

I hope I didn`t waste your time.

Regards, Mike.

A bit of wasted time - faxing, talking etc. - but I can't say I wasn't warned. He claims to have the parts, but was offended when I mentioned the PMO fuel rails -'you go and buy yourself that Chinese crap then, PUUUUURRRP' was his response. Interesting chap though, I'll try again when he opens up shop tommorrow - I hope he dosen't go on DDK?

Thanks for the contact though Mike - I'll be sure to pass it on!

You could try Eurocarb - I know they do Weber and Dellorto parts, I got a rebuild kit from them for my Webers

I can't remember what size the banjo bolts are on 40 IDA's (& I can't get to mine at the moment) but saw these on ebay:

12mm:

I went through all of this as said before.
Banjo bolts can be had from Webcon (good company) but Andy there said the banjo's for the webers are no longer available.

Incidentally my 'Chinese cr@p' PMO manifolds are great.
Took them off my webers and onto the PMO's.
