I'm sorting out a few of my dad's old cars and I need to get an accelerator pump diaphragm for this Weber carb

I'm used to seeing the model number engraved on the side of the carb which I can't see in this case, there is a tag which Google suggests is due to it being an OEM supplied carb which doesn't help me as the engine is in a kit car

I don't suppose all the accelerator pumps use the same diaphragm ?

Looks like a DGAV 32/36 with a manual choke kit fitted.

Could do with more photos but it looks like a 38 DGAS converted to manual choke to me, is it on a Ford v6 engine?

It's in an Adams Roadster

Which has been converted from a Jag to a BMW 2.7i engine

Which has been converted to this carb

If it's a DGAV or DGV carb it will have a linkage between the two throttle spindles that cause one throttle butterfly to open before the other, if it's a DGAS or DGMS it will have quadrants with gear teeth on the throttle spindles that cause both to be opened simultaneously.

Strange that nothing is stamped on the other side, like here.

See my link above. It looks like the DGMS is the manual version and the DGAS is the auto version.

Either way, I'd expect both to have the same pump diaphragm thumbup
