Does anyone have a copy - Dellorto tuning guide Tim Engel

Post by Alan_M »

Hi, does anyone have a copy of the guide to tuning the Dellorto written by Tim Engel (Esprit2).

I normally access it from his website, but the link isn’t working - http://www.espritfactfile.com/carbbalancing.html

So wondering if anyone has a copy they can send me?

Thanks

Here are a couple of updates on that same theme:

Balancing Dellorto - 'The Lotus Grand Tourers' - by Tim Engel.pdf - 2003
https://tinyurl.com/bdhmukjy

Balancing Dellorto & Weber Carbs - Procedure - Tim Engel.pdf - 2022
https://tinyurl.com/5cm35fdx

Same basic content, just updated. I'm editing now, and was going to delete the 2003 version (it's ancient), but figured 'what the heck'. I marked them both with dates... you can determine what you wish to download. I'd just download the 2022 version and call it good.

Regards,
Tim

Brilliant, and very generous Tim.
