I am refurbishing an elderly Zenith 24T-2 carburettor, Model F1372, and the Air Regulating Screw appears to be missing any form of finely tapering tip. A replacement from Gower and Lee looks the part but does not fit being a slightly larger diameter. G&L confirm that what they have supplied is the listed item and they have checked that it fits all the 24T-2 carburettors they have on the shelf. Their conclusion is that my carb is an early version and that the thread was changed subsequently. I have since determined that my thread is 2BA.
Might anyone have a F1372 carb on the shelf and the time to spare to check whether it has a 2BA thread? If it has, would you be prepared to photograph your screw so that I can observe its profile and attempt to re-create a new version from a 2BA brass screw?
Any help or suggestions most gratefully received.
John.
