carnut1100 Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 SU carbs also don't have a conventional choke valve. If you choked an SU then very little air would flow past the vacuum hole and the mixture would lean right out. Instead when you pull the choke knob the jet moves down, having the same effect as the needle moving up and richening the mixture. The Stromberg CD carbs work on the same principal but have a rubber diaphragm instead of a piston to work the needle. Manual conversion is wildly variable on the car you have. I wanted to co9nvert my old Peugeot 604 to manual but as manuals were never sold in Austrlia it would cost at least $1000-1500 to get a flywheel, bellhousing, gearbox etc. I am almost certain that VR4 stands for 4wd.
