If you have the Pierbug (deliberate typo!) carb, remove it, either clean and polish it and put it on your mantelpiece or file it in the round filing cabinet commonlly known as the bin!

Invest a bit of money in a Weber conversion, it will pay back in reliability and economy.

I believe they also do a 32/36DGV conversion, progressive twin-chokes instead of sequential, depends what you want really.
