Getting around to overhauling a M-74 B Linkert for my project (since I am on hold for a oil pump) and I have been reading Bruce Palmers new book for details on the carb.
He says that there should be a asbestos or phenolic washer on the main fuel nozzle. That bugger would be tiny.
I can not find any reference for a part number in what few manuals that I have.
Question:
Is in necessary for the washer to be in place?
Any info for a part number for the washer?
Or, what would the dimentions be for making one out of PEEK if they are required.
As always thanks for any info.
George

Re: M-74 Linkert Nozzle
The carbon holds just fine after a few miles.Thats what makes them a bitch to take out.I am by any means an EXPERT on LINKERTS!.But I have played with a few & you learn more Doing & reading.Let sit in corrosive P-4 gas or Kroil whatever you have .Let it sit overnight & work it GENTLY.When you get some movement Soak & use Air & WORK IT GENTLY.---Respectfully---Richie////I hope were thinking of the same part! /Respectfully---RICHIE

Re: M-74 Linkert Nozzle
I guess that I am reading Bruce's caption under the photos for the nozzles wrong,
Old book, Page 247, upper left photo and caption
New book page 377.
Thanks for clearing up this
