Default Stromberg 97 repair?

I have a British made 97 with less than 100 miles on it. On my ‘34 Roadster, ran just fine. I broke down the engine compartment to refresh it, restored the air cleaner, put on a new copper mesh filter…

Put it back together, car starts right up, but rumbling, bumbling, stumbling. Put on a separate rebuilt original Stromberg 97, car runs perfect.

I think some of the copper mesh particles got sucked into the British one. I am not a mechanic, would like to send it out to someone to open it up and check it out, and adjust the idle screws that messed with to try and rectify the situation.

I reached out to Uncle Max’s, left a voice mail, sent an email, filled out the form on his web site to no avail. Any help appreciated
