rkldesign Posted October 24, 2013 Report Posted October 24, 2013 I too have a stromberg to rebuild, it is currently a desk weight right now sitting next to my keyboard. It is a BXV-3 I would like how to identify the carb. It has patent numbers on it and Stromberg , South Bend, USA I have gotten a part number 1241507 from my Route Van shop manual. Thanks for the help, Richard Quote
_shel_ny Posted October 24, 2013 Report Posted October 24, 2013 (edited) When I got my kit from NAPA I used the number on top, forward of the dash pot rod. EDIT: That # along with the BXVD-3 on the flange. Edited October 24, 2013 by shel_ny Quote
tonkaman Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Posted October 25, 2013 Did your napa kit come with a new leather piston? Quote
_shel_ny Posted October 26, 2013 Report Posted October 26, 2013 NAPA 25106 Site shows parts, and lists what it fits. Quote
