I have a Stromberg OF carburetor on my 24 Model T and it runs really well. My only problem is that it drips gas when it is sitting unless I shut off the fuel. I know Stan Howe made a viton needle and seat several years ago but he has since sadly passed away. I understand a new needle with a viton tip stops the leaks. Does anyone know if anyone is still making replacement needle and seats for the OF carburetor? I could probably try to make something up myself but I would really like to get one from someone with experience.
Thanks!
