Stromberg Carb Mixture Control?
Posted: Wed Mar 27, 2024 4:12 pm
Hi,
I'm installing a zero-time W-165 in my F-24W, and it came with a Stromberg carb, not the Holley that was on my previous engine. In the Stromberg, the Mixture arm is Aft for Rich, the opposite of the Holley. So, the bell-crank and tie-rods don't work on this new installation (although the throttle connects up OK).
Has anyone got photos of a Stromberg mixture set-up for the W-165 in a F-24W? I can't find anything in the books. It sure would be helpful if I could see one.
Thanks,
Dave Hadfield
