Getting the Wheeling Fever
OK, I (regretting it now) got me a 1986 jeep Cherokee, 2.8.. Three weeks ago <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />, it had some power issues, so I got it a Weber Carb, which did not fix it's problem The Weber Carb ...
Now since I have Learned my lesson (The Hard Way) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> I want to put the Weber on my 1986 Trooper, and am just wondering if it's possible to do it, it appears that it has an adapter plate on it to fit onto the jeep, and it's Actual Mounting flange looks to be about the same size as my troopers Carb.
If it isn't, is it possible to get an adapter plate and then be able to use it on my trooper???
The only thing I don't know about is the vacuum hoses, the weber only uses one, will just one work??? My trooper has about a hundred on it right now...
I think I can rig the throttle cable so it'll work
Not sure if this in the right forum but maybe someone here might be able to help...
If nobody knows I'll let y'all know how it all goes Sunday.

Need a Spot
I did the same thing but with my jeep was missing the carb.
Anyway I have the weber 34 dgev and just ordered the adapter plates for isuzu. Make sure it's the two piece set up. the mounting studs on the isuzu are a little offset. No big problems other than I had to fab up a throttle cable bracket. My 86' runs great now, noticable gain in power. You'll only need the vacuum for the distributor. Then you can scrap the whole vaccum/egr system. It is a pain tracking down all the open vaccum leaks after disconecting things..
