Rick,

Haynes makes a great manual that covers these carbs, it is misleadingly
titled Weber Carburettors, but it actually covers Webers, SU, and Zenith
Stromburg's.  Most auto stores don't have them in stock, I found one at a
Pep Boy's, You can still have them special ordered and they are about
$17.00.  The Manual also lists supply houses and specialists that can help
you with your carb.  Hope I helped!
