The 'teapot' carburettor on my 1949 Mercury stock 255c" engine alloy section inlet boss has a stripped fine thread. has anyone a spare good alloy top to replace mine please? Cheers...Peter Hibbert. Australia.

I may have one,acually are you talking about the gas inlet hole where the feed line screws into , its really part of the middle inside bowl section. 1/8" fine us pipe thread. Yes it is pretty fine as all 1/8" pipe thread is. Ive got 2/3 of a used carb (no top cover) Pretty dirty but has usable thread in it. You can have it for a $10 usa bill and pay shipping. If you want it I will go to US Post office for cost of shipping to you. ken Isidor Ct. usa. I'm liquidating my 25 yr hobby business. ken ct. I post on the efv8ca website only. I would need your complete name and address for PO. send it in an email. igadore@sbcglobal.net

Dear Ken. Thanks for your response. That sounds great provided the thread is OK as you state & the alloy base is OK too. I can clean it so no bother to me there. Could you please quote cheapest P/P to Peter Hibbert 5 Tarnook Street Vermont South 3133 Melbourne Australia. I have some time for it to arrive. After I hear back, we can arrange payment as you require. Keep on FORDIN`. Cheers...Peter. E-mail. peter_hibbert@bigpond.com

Peter , USPO wants $76.00 shipping to Melbourn this is basically the whole carb all 3 sections. Cutting it down to just the middle bowl section would not save much maybe a couple of dollars.If it would help you i'll give you the carb as a gift for the shipping chg. alone. This is the only one that has the 1/8" PT inlet out of many I have. Email will still not go through. Send me a reg. email to mine. igadore@sbcglobal.net and I will have your proper email. ken ct. usa
