Technical 84 Uno carb kit

Carb kit question.

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a Carb Kit for my 84 Uno 70s, 1301 cc, Solex Carb. My top gasket has fallen too bits, probably the original one!

Can't get one from Mal over here so I figure I am out of luc, but I thought I would give it a go on here.

If its a 30CIC carb, this seems to be your fella:

Many thanks

That is the one.

When I went to buy now I discovered I had forgotten my passowerd and I got locked out.

I will try again shortly.

Many thanks.

I am mystified as to how you found that.
I have hunted and could not come up with that listing, using google even when I knew it was there and I still could not find it!!

Again many thanks.

I think I might be able to help with that eBay-related question!
eBay standard search is useless for us Kiwis because it favours listings in the USA and Australia (we're just a part of Australia, aren't we? )

Solution is to do an Advanced Search (Advanced is a link next to Search) and then scroll down to the Location part. Tick the box beside Only show items. Instead of 'Preferred locations', choose 'Available to', and choose New Zealand in the drop-down list.

Then go back up to the top, enter keywords and click Search, and marvel at all the non-USA and non-Australia listings that it would never find before I figured this out when searching for LEGO 12V train stuff.

Great work here. The kits arrived today, will get to it tomorrow and put one kit in one of the carbs.

Many many thanks

Just went for quick check, all seems good.
Kit came with new needle valve, the two jets, 3 gaskets, 1 diaphragm, carb on my 250,000km car will be nearly new!!
