In another Thread I have been posting about a recent problem I have been having with my Stromberg carbs.
I have now had them off and on several times, and 3 times I thought I had cured my failure to start problem (when engine cold they are not supplying enough fuel).
Not so and I currently have the carbs in bits again, and if I don't resolve the issue this time I think I am going to be faced with several choices.
1 - Replace them with a reconditioned Stromberg pair?
2 - Swap to a StagWeber set up?.
3 - Swap to a Holley set up?
If I don't finally get them to work properly, can I ask what other members on here have done when faced with a similar problem in the past,
and of those that chose to go the Weber or Holley route, did you make the right choice, and was it a straightforward swap or not?.
How many Stag owners are currently using Webers, and how many Holley I would be interested to know (if it is possible to find out).
Price wise I don't think there is a lot of difference between the three, and if I didn't choose replacement Strombergs, which would be the easiest to set up properly and maintain, and offers the best advantages.
I will do my very best to fix the current carbs if I can, but going to keep my options open.
Thank you in anticipation of your replies/advice.
