ECCO Carburetor

Post by Bruce Compton » Mon Jul 06, 2020 9:59 am

Does anyone here know anything about this Ecco Carb and manifold? I found it at Hershey a few years ago and it's near mint although not NOS (I think). Sure looks like an improved U&J with a bit smaller venturi and external adjustment.

Wow, Thanks Dan : I'm now tempted to try it wondering how it will perform compared to the many different carbs I've rebuilt and tested. The info doesn't mention "performance" so I'm not expecting U&J similarities. I see that you're in North central Florida, we had a spot in Zephyrhills for over 20 years and just sold this spring about a week before the virus hit. Going to miss the Sumpter and Z-Hills flea markets this winter. Thanks again : Bruce
