I am in need of a float bowl drain plug for a ZS 175CD. I finally got my '73 S1 close to trustworthy and then noticed that one carb was leaking. I have had my carbs on and off a few times and must have somehow hit the plug just right because a couple of the plastic tabs aren't doing anything now. Does anyone have a good US source where I can order one of these? I guess I could check the local guys here in town but I work 8-6ish and most of those places work the same, so it's hard to get down there. If anyone happens to have a few they don't need, name your price and maybe we can make a deal. I can take care of shipping. Anything would be great.

And yes, I have searched this. It seems like I can find all other parts for these carbs, except the ones I need. I came across them once before, but can't find the site again. Thanks!

 

I have a set of Strombergs I pulled of my old series II parts car. I'll dig them out and have a look at them for you. I'll have an answer in the next day or two.

Solo.

 

Awesome, thanks, I appreciate it!

 

I had glass bead polished the carbs a while back. There is a little dust on them from sitting at my shop but they're decent. If it's all the same to you, I'd rather sell the pair of carbs complete at a reasonable price as opposed to small parts.
send me a p.m. to discuss numbers if you want to go ahead.

Thanks!

 

SNG Barratt has them. I had to get new one's too.

 

another source is Joe Curto

Thanks for the replies, everyone! I only needed the float bowl plugs, and not another set of these carbs. If they weren't ZS's I may have been more interested. I ended up buying a set from Englishparts.com. I found them by doing an image search and they were the first store I came across. I must say, fast turnaround and quick shipping. I think transit time on shipping was 2-3 days (fell on a weekend and went USPS) from Michigan to Idaho. I will definitely be bookmarking those other sources listed so I can find parts a little easier. I like to think I'm decent at searching stuff, until it comes to Jaguar parts. Thanks again!

 

On a side note, can someone tell me what this port in the picture is? I just put my float bowls back on but it was dark and I noticed there was nothing hooked up here. I can't think of what it's for and it was too dark to really see much with my flashlight. I will look around more tonight, but figured I'd ask. It's only on the front carb.
