Stromberg 48 or 97 ????
How do you tell the difference between a Stomberg 48 and 97 carburetor? I just post for sale what I believe is a 97, can you tell by the pics?

The base and the main body are 48 not the typical "South Bend" But the "Elmira" The casting number for the top is located inside the float bowl it could either be the Model 40 P-19402 or the 48 P-20692 top.
Corrected below by nick the bandit. The main body is 97. Last edited by Terry,OH; 07-05-2021 at 07:17 AM. |

The top does not have the detent ball boss to hold the choke open. The choke lever does not have the hole for the detent. The top is not a 97 top and the base is not either unless someone went to the trouble of pulling the shaft and changing the choke linksge.
It is a made up carb from parts. |
