Default carb parts

I've got the Pierburg carb on a cvh 1.8 engine. I've been phoning around all morning trying to find the insulator block that fits between the inlet manifold and carb. Tried all the dealers and a few specialists and part is no longer available. Does anyone have a spare that they would like to sell on?
Thanks

Sorry Andy but I don't have an old one. Although I think it will be the shape of the bottom of the carb

Hi Bill

I have a complete 1.8 CVH carb & manifold here.

Destined for the skip as it is taking up valuable room on the workshop shelf.

You are more than welcome to the whole lot if you wish to cover the postage.

Drop me a email or PM if it is of any use to you.

Thanks Ronnie. I'll take you up on that. I'll send pm.
I have to say that this is a great gesture from you and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. This is the smile on my face right now

Also thanks to Andy for his offer of help. This is a great forum.

You are most welcome Bill
Much rather it was put to some good use rather than just junked.

I'll post it out tomorrow

Bob

I am ashamed to say that the bench still looks in the same mess today.

Mind you, it is stacked high with different stuff now.

Trouble is, I have so much man's things, kinda run out of room for it all.

Been slowly clearing out some of the stuff I have been hoarding for years, long since forgot what half of it came off
