hello all I have a Fish carb that is not needed as much as money right now!
these things are munt to be the most economical carbs ever made and only have one moving part! the butterfly type flap which has three holes in the shaft where the petrol comes out off.
no idea what its worth, non on ebay, so offers please and if anyone in the know about these things could you please pm me to tell me what I should expect or try and get for it?
no manifold but is an easy carb to fit using a flat plate, hasd only two mounting points (from memory)
thanks chris
p.s pics can be added, but not right now its dark ;D and on my car still.

No idea what it's worth, but it would be cool to put it on my avenger. Let me know if you have any idea what you want for it

to be honest its on a engine well to small for it, it came on a hillman imp taht Iv just picked up and no matter what I do I cant get the fule rate low enough for a 875/900cc so bigger than that basically!

i think i did read up on these and they made one up to 1300 and one over 1300cc that wa about it then you can adjust the fuel rate to suit think they were made by reece or someone like that nearly got one for my mini but it wa the bigger size one so it wasnt any good think he was asking £30 for it,but not sure what they actually are worth

I was thinking since its not on manifold and looks like its going to be a 'bigger' size one asking around the 70ish mark?

Had a Reece Fish carb myself. Was intending to use on a Mini & believe that`s what they were originally designed for. Went twin SU in the end so didn`t use mine. Stuck it on e-bay last year, was near mint condition & complete with mounting flange & cable bracket etc. Only went for £40 !
