Does anyone know if you can buy the fuel block holder to suit the 175CD carb. Or is it a home fabrication job. Thanks Ian.

Hi Ian, Merrick is prob the best bet to get one from but knowing him you will have to buy a complete fuel line set up to get it.

If you want to fabricate one I should still have drawings with dimensions.

I know it is not genuine, but I put this together for under $30 with bits from Pirtek2e1f521b384abe3425d3048055b7f53c.jpg
From memory, the threads in the block had to be re-tapped from bsp to npt or the other way around, or something……

Ian's XU1 has the rubber fuel line 949 carbs. He needs the bracket that supports the fuel bock to the centre carb.
