Services & Refurbishment
JDA Retro Services are the authorised service centre for Webercarburettor.com
JDA Retro Services offer component and carburettor refurbishment primarily for Weber and Dellorto carburettors.
Being carburettor specialist, we can assess, refurbish and bring your carburettor back to as new condition.
All carburettors are cleaned externally and internally.
All oxidisation and contaminates are removed using our 3 stage cleaning process developed specifically for carburettors which is non destructive to the carburettor body or components.
WE DON’T JUST CLEAN THE OUTSIDE OF CARBURETTORS
Each carburettor is inspected and a condition report provided to the customer.
The carburettors are then re-assembled using our bespoke service kits, our Weber service kit designed by JDA for example uses Genuine Weber components and has over 60 parts compared to the standard off the shelf service kit with just over 20 parts.
We then subject each finished carburettor to fuel pressure and leak testing along with balance testing.
This is carried out either on our custom engine test stand or by bench testing using specialist equipment.
Photos and videos are made available to customers throughout the process.

Other processes
In addition to carburettors JDA offers the following specialist cleaning and refurb processes for carburettors and vehicle components along with carrying out batch processing for engineered parts that require consistent high standard finishing.
VAPOUR BLASTING
Primarily for aluminium components and carburettors vapour blasting is a non aggressive media cleaning process using a specialist wet media cabinet.
We used pressurised water and glass beads to remove years of oxidisation contaminates and debris.
This process not only cleans the item but leaves an as new satin polish finish.
Excellent for aluminium vehicle parts motorbike casings manifolds engine components and carburettors.
ULTRASONIC CLEANING
This process uses ultrasonic frequency and the appropriate cleaning agent to remove deposits and ingrained contaminants.
Excellent for carburettors and other intricate components.
There is no abrasive media in this process.
Recommended as a pre and final process when vapour blasting carburettors.
DRY MEDIA BLASTING
Our pressure pot system is a more aggressive media blasting process to remove rust corrosion contaminates and previous paint and powder coated finishes.
An excellent process to prepare components by not only cleaning the substrate but leaving an etched key for painting or powder coating.
CHEMICAL HOT PARTS WASH
Using non corrosive cleaning agents to prepare heavily soiled parts prior to media blasting.
