Stromberg E22 carburetor
#1
Not too shy to talk
Not too shy to talk

My 1934 Packard vin no 715-1006 has a Stromberg E22 carburetor. It runs fine but if I remove air cleaner and look down the carb when running, fuel is dribbling down into manifold. I rather expected to see vapour. I’ve taken a short video with iPhone but unfortunately it won’t upload. Says file is too big. (It’s 6.4 mb) any suggestions? And if it does sound wrong how can I fix it? Thank you.

As for the problem you are experiencing I don’t have an answer, however if you want to share the video you can upload it to YouTube and then share the link to the YouTube video.

Packard Tech Tips -Part 3 Carburetion. A leaking economizer valve will cause a rich mixture over the entire operating range, excessive gasoline consumption and a rich idle that can't be adjusted out. With the Stromgberg carb you can make a quick check for leaking by removing the air cleaner and looking into the air horn. If any gas comes from the downward turned economizer jet at less than 60 mph, the economizer valve is leaking. Dirt will cause an economizer valve to leak - so will a scored or worn valve seat. Gum in the gasoline sometimes collects on and sticks the valve, holding it open or closed.
