Thanks Eric Thats the number that comes up for me also....but my old carb....1964 part number is 10-3237??....I think its time for an overhaul...heck The Beatles just landed in New York when mine was rebuilt last....It still works pretty good except the shaft has some play...Does anybody know where I can buy at a good price??.....Does The 170 Association have any buying power from major suppliers like Aviall or API..???....Perhaps we could work on a getting trade price on parts to help reduce the increasing cost of Flying...Let me know what you think...Pat 49A

TIC170 has little influence with typical suppliers of such parts (and even less interest in liability for procuring parts from wholesale suppliers.) :?
