- Hey Ken, My dashpot oil used to leak over time...until I replaced the O-rings on the needle adjusting screws along with new needles in early May. I haven't had to top off since. Pete CF51563U --Origi

- Just curious . . . since it's normal to check the dash pot every now and then and top it off, how in the world does the oil get "used up"? Is this a dumb question or what !? Sitting here in CT. scra

- Hi Dick, If that's the case than I need new O-ring seals. I've had to top off my oil every few hundred miles. As far has the hesitation is concerned, I haven't had a chance to do much about it with a

- I have often wondered that same thing. I don't think my Haynes ZS manual explains why that it happens, but I'll look tonight. One of my carbs always seemed to be low on dashpot oil. Now that the head

- Based on my dismantling reassembling my practice pair of Stromberg carbs and successfully rebuilding the ones in my car, here's what I know. If I'm mistaken, I'm sure some of the pros on the list wil

- There is an o-ring around the screw that is used to adjust the needle. I have replaced it a few times, and as I remember it, you remove the needle (back out the set screw and use jet tool to turn ful

- Hi Don, Sorry, I was looking at Al's message about his '74 and didn't see your problem was with an earlier car - I don't know about the TR250/early TR6 setup with fixed needles. The Moss parts list d
