The Ford Barn

I'm still looking for any information on an idle jet for my Stromberg RF carb. Stan Howe is swamped and I hate to bother him, but I could use an actual jet, or just a sketch, drawing or a picture with some dimensions so I could have one made locally. The carb is near perfect except for the idle jet, and I'd sure like to get it operational. Thanks : Bruce

I will look at my Stromberg. Not remembering what model it is.

Do you have an outlet for float needle and seats?

Potter last I spoke to him could not repair needle and seat if had issues.

Thanks Fordman, I have no extra RF parts, but do have an OF that is incomplete (for parts). I thought Russ was mainly into Holley HN carbs, but I'll give him a call. Bruce
