Default Stromberg carb 175 CDSU for 1978 244DL

Hi All,
I am trying to find someone who can supply me with a fully reconditioned carburetter on exchange basis for my 1978 244 DL. It presently runs on the original 175 CDSU Stromberg which has had the needle lifted but is worn so that I have a large flat spot on acceleration. The car runs fine when up to speed but is a little heavy on the fuel.
Anyone know of a firm in England who can help me ?

Cheers.

Neil Stevenson.

Try Burlen Fuel Systems

http://www.burlen.co.uk/

A browse through the ads in Practical Classics or similar could prove useful too.

Good luck

Chris
