Title: Stromberg Jets
Post by: Rod on March 10, 2007, 01:10:34 AM
Hi All,

I am after 2 48 stromberg main jets. I tried a while ago with American Auto parts but they don't stock them anymore.

If anyone has got any spares or knows a location where I maybe able to purchase them I would be interested in hearing from you.

I have some main jet drills but unsure of their size, so worst comes to worst I can get some blank ones and drill them out.

Cheers

Rod

Try Carb Service Company, they are on Parramatta Road Burwood, next to the bus depot.

Cheers,

Craig

You can always solder yours up & redrill them.

Thanks Guys for the reply. Yes I may solder jets up and redrill but I am hoping this is the last resort. I understand because of the small nature of the bits slow revs is needed with the drill. Don't know if I want to risk breaking the bit.

Once again thanks.

Was this the jet size in the original 1 1/32 stromberg?  If so I have a carby here that I can pinch the jet out of!!  Only problem is I can't find my main jet removal tool!!  ???

I think originals are 51.
Did Carb Service co have what you needed?

Rod,
       I think I have some, back from when I was running tripples and playing around with lots of different types of jets.  I will have to check in the shed tonight, I will send a pm with what I have.

Rod,
        I checked my shed and all I have are 3 x 45, 1 x 50 and 1 x 59.  Sorry no 48's, I think that is what I ended up using in the tripples.
