Rolling Rd near Sheffield? Help please

  1. Does anyone know of a rolling rd near Sheffield. They also need to know about twin carbs ideally dellorto. The ones i have spoken to don't know how to set up twin carbs they just deal with modern injection engines.


    Thanks Paul

  3. There's Pete Burgess in Alfreton, Keith who works there is very clued up on his Vw's and knows them inside out just about. Worth trying there. Are van is booked in on monday.

  4. standard rolling road costs 72 quid but I had no fuel pressure in my left carb so he sorted that out, re jetted them and got them running right for both fuel efficiency and performance and total bill was 140 quid, will be going back as and when I need them :)

    I think the Autotronix guy is called Clive - Adam (Joycee) uses him and speaks very highly of him, he got his bay and his bugs sorted there!

  11. Pete Burgess is supposed to be excellent. One of his relatives has a son in my son's nursery, and they are VW mad. I will be going there to have my carbs looked at.
