Default Weber carb on a 100 4 pot- mounting kit?

Ive got a weber carb on my 100 4 cylinder. The weber is the same type as fitted to Cortinas and RS2000s. It was running great but the rubber mounting block has perished and is letting in air. Does anybody know anywhere that sells any? Its really annoying!

Failing that id happily swap back to the original pierburg carb if I could find one, the carb isnt really used as the car runs on LPG but the air leaks really make it run horrible!

Any ideas??

Hi Tim,

We used to fit a plastic/composite gasket "sandwich" to those cars to help keep the carb cool; our local weber agent had 'em in stock, but it was a looong time ago.

Either google "weber spares" or try one of the many retro-type Ford specialists?
