Joe,

I would guess anything off of ebay would probably also need a rebuild. I
just rebuilt my ZS's, it's really not too hard. Buckeye Triumphs has a good
article on their web site.

Hey List,
My Strombergs leak like cheesecloth.  Instead of rebuilding myself or paying
TRF $300.00, I was looking on Ebay for options...I see some fresh 1-3/4"SU
HIF6 carbs off old Volvos for sale.  Does anyone have any experience with
these?.  How do they compare to HS6's ?  I here that SU's are easier to
maintain and adjust than Strombergs, and may net more power.  Honestly I've
not had too much trouble with the stock Strombergs (until now).  I don't
know
how things match up ie: choke, crank case ventillation, linkage, etc...  Any
advice before I bid?
