#1 SU dashpot thread size

Post by abowie » Mon Apr 03, 2017 11:20 pm

Ever wondered what the thread is in the top of the SU carb where the damper screws in?

According to the very helpful chaps at Burlen it's 11/16" 24tpi.

So if you have a stripped one you can now fix it!

That sounds like a cycle thread.
