Stromberg 48 Float setting
Could someone please advise the correct float setting for the 48 Stromberg.
Foolishly I let one of my friends clean out a carburettor for me and they decided they would take the opportunity to reset the float level. Need to return it to spec-Thanks Karl

Re: Stromberg 48 Float setting
Float level: Measure down 9/32" from the outside body gasket surface to the top of the free end of the float, just adjacent to the hump. Bend the tang accordingly.
When finished, it will be slightly lower than level. This usually gives the magic 15/32" Fuel level.
