I'll put in my 2 cents and recommend RIMCO for rebushing the throttle shafts too. I had them do the one on my bus. It made that engine run so much smoother. I was amazed. When I first tried to switch over to stock solexes from webers the solexes leaked very badly. Not just a little trickle. I had RIMCO rebush them and they're great now.

I've got another pair of solexes that I bought when I started working on my conversion. Luckily I found another set that weren't stuck.
