Hallo zusammen,
ich bin schon seit einiger Zeit auf der Suche, um den geschichtlichen Hintergrund der "Weber-Vergaser" etwas zu beleuchten.
Leider bin ich auf keine großen Informationen zur Geschichte und zum Hersteller / Entwickler dieser Vergaser (speziell Doppelvergaser DCOE) gestossen.
Wer kann mir hier etwas weiterhelfen?
Dankeschön + viele Grüße!
Weber Vergaser

Weber carburetors were originally produced in Italy by Edoardo Weber as part of a conversion kit for 1920s Fiats. Weber pioneered the use of twin barrel carburetors with two barrels (or venturi) of different sizes, the smaller one for low speed running and the larger one optimised for high speed use.
In the 1930s Weber began producing twin barrel carburetors for motor racing where two barrels of the same size were used. These were arranged so that each cylinder of the engine has its own carburetor barrel. These carburetors found use in Maserati and Alfa Romeo racing cars.
In time, Weber carburetors were fitted to standard production cars and factory racing applications on automotive marques such as Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, BMW, Ferrari, Fiat, Ford, Lamborghini, Lancia, Lotus, Maserati, Porsche, Triumph, and Volkswagen.
In the United States Weber Carburetors are sold for both street and off road use. They are sold in what is referred to as a Weber Conversion kit. A Weber conversion kit is a complete package of Weber Carburetor, intake manifold or manifold adapter, throttle linkage, air filter and all of the necessary hardware needed to install the Weber on a vehicle.
In modern times, fuel injection has replaced carburetors in both production cars and motor racing although Weber carburettors are still used extensively in classic and historic racing, and also as high quality replacements for problematic OE carburettors. Weber fuel system components are distributed by Magneti Marelli and Webcon UK Ltd.
