Accelerator pump spring

Post by anothersteveg »

So last night the Fiat was really running rough on the way home. It was backfiring and having a lot of hesitation on acceleration. After looking this morning I found the spring in the accelerator pump housing was broke. The diaphragm is good, just the spring. I guess corrosion over time?

Anyway, does anyone have a suggestion on where to get a new one?

I just ordered one from Pierce Manifolds webpage. I was cleaning my spring during a rebuild and it flew somewhere in the garage! Look up 32 ADFA and you will find a parts list to order from.

Thanks, I just saw that too. I dug around and found several extra springs in my screw drawer. Is there anything special about that one or will any spring work (assuming the right size)?
