dougbgt6 Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I never new it was called a starting valve! What's wrong with the old one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 The term comes from it being an enrichment device rather than a strangler which is a choke they all make for a rich cold starting mixture , a choke restricts the air a start valve adds more fuel the result is the same well something like that Each manufacturer devised a different play on a solution dropped jets, obstructed intake, choked flap and automacity flap, enrichment valve, either pulled by manual cable or sprial bimetal heat reactive spring some heated by water some electric. pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanG Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 I never new it was called a starting valve! What's wrong with the old one? Hi dougbgt6, I was rebuilding the carbs this week and i found some old gasket blocked into the 2 tiny holes/vent, there are tiny littles disc that moves freely, but now they are stuck with the old gasket, i v tried to cleaned it, and i m gonna try them first because £50.00 for this is crazy !

dougbgt6 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 I don't recall these when I did mine. Could they be part of the gasket? Have a look at this, it's for a 175 Stromberg but much the same. http://www.buckeyetriumphs.org/technical/Carbs/CarbsII/CarbsII.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 If there is any corrosion on the disc a sheet of fine wet dry on a flat (glass) and you can reface the discs any blocked drilling should clean with some gentle persuation with a fine needle point pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
