Stromberg 175 cd 2 manual8/25/2023 ![]() I recently purchased a rebuild kit for each carb but frankly don't know that this will solve my problem. ![]() There's a bit of black smoke on start up, the spark plugs are blackened and though she runs great at speed, the engine stalls at low RPM when warmed up. It seems that no matter where I choose to leave the adjustment screw, the engine runs about the same - rich. I have turned that screw until the thread bottoms out and there is no sign of any jet making contact with the piston (on either carb). (There's a bunch of additional steps after this of course). Both instruct to turn the jet adjustment screw, for each carb, until the jet itself touches the bottom of the air valve piston - then back it off a couple of turns. I have faithfully followed the instructions in the owner's manual as well as more detailed advice in the Haynes Workshop Manual on carburetor settings and adjustment. I purchased my67 Alpine SV a few years back and have never been truly happy with the way it runs at low speed.
