DatMo Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 So I've handed off a complete cannon linkage set to my mechanic to get my linkage going but he says I'm missing the idle adjustment which I figured was the rod threads on the sides. With that being said, does anyone know what I'm missing and where I could possibly get them? Here's what's currently on the car. I handed him everything that's on there ATM. Need asap.

G-Duax Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Yeah, the idle speed adjustment is part of the carbs. Find a new mechanic. See item 'a': 2 Quote Link to comment

Thank you so much! That piece was not included in the cannon setup. Know where I could get that potentially or what it's called? My linkage has nothing like those smaller side piece that's attached. Edit. I've also found some online linkage but I think it still wouldn't work due to the fact that it's facing the front end of the car when it's mounted. I'm also not sure if the cable it comes with would be long enough. I find it more suitable to just find those levers. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/291933275908?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_ref=http%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F711-117182-37290-0%252F2%253Fmtid%253D1588%2526kwid%253D1%2526crlp%253D164965185820_324272%2526itemid%253D291933275908%2526targetid%253D271413297030%2526rpc%253D0.12%2526rpc_upld_id%253D113136%2526device%253Dm%2526mpre%253Dhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.ebay.com%25252Fulk%25252Fitm%25252Flike%25252F291933275908%25253Flpid%25253D82%252526chn%25253Dps%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526googleloc%253D9031026%2526poi%253D%2526campaignid%253D714751104%2526adgroupid%253D42866488452%2526rlsatarget%253Daud-281204642876%253Apla-271413297030%2526gclid%253DCjwKEAjwh9PGBRCfso2n3ODgvUcSJAAhpW5oPki1LYgKOPEk9nmJw3rnEYiKKEaUKhpbCp-P0Y_3WxoCtkfw_wcB%2526srcrot%253D711-117182-37290-0%2526rvr_id%253D1189109701921&ul_noapp=true Quote Link to comment

I'm waiting back on responses. Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 I googled "dellorto dhla parts" and found a few sources. http://www.carburetion.com/Dellorto/DellortoDHLAParts.asp http://www.dellortoshop.com/contents/en-us/d2_Dellorto_DHLA_Carburetor_Parts.html https://www.cbperformance.com/category-s/130.htm I would seriously look into a center pull style linkage though. They are much easier to keep in tune and the danger of twisting a throttle shaft is greatly diminished. This page shows center pull on DHLA carbs - https://toyotaminis.com/forum/threads/sidedrafts-20r-intake-dellorto-40s.6175/ Any mechanic that is willing to think outside the box to make something happen will be able to get it working. Simply telling you that you're missing parts... I too would look for another mechanic. Quote Link to comment

DatMo Posted March 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 With that being said, I found this kit online which would be best. I've read multiple times that dellortos and webers are very similar so I'm thinking this would work for my situation and it's $109 complete which isn't bad. Once again, thanks for the input. http://www.lceperformance.com/Center-Pull-Throttle-Linkage-Kit-Sidedraft-Carbs-p/1035023.htm 1 Quote Link to comment

DatMo Posted March 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 European auto on Prarie st. here in La has everything for doritos. I do need a choke. A little late since I already purchased the center pull but that sounds great. I'll have to find the address and go there to get a choke for sure. Quote Link to comment
