As the proud owner of a classic Volvo, you know the charm of this car is not just in its looks, but also in the engineering behind it. The Stromberg CD150 carburettors are crucial to the driving experience of your Amazon. But what if they no longer run smoothly? We'll show you how we bring them back to life.
Why this type is special

With its elegant lines and dependable engineering, the Amazon is a true icon among car enthusiasts. The combination of a powerful engine and the innovative Stromberg carburettors delivers a unique driving experience that is appreciated to this day.

Our approach at Carburateur Service Nederland
We know how important well-functioning carburettors are. This is how we go about it:

- Ultrasonic cleaning: our advanced technique removes all contamination and deposits.
- Overhaul: we replace worn parts and bring the carburettors back to factory standards.

Our workshop is at Huizerweg 49, 1401 GH Bussum, the Netherlands, where our team of craftsmen is ready to give your carburettors a second life.
Advice from the workshop
With autumn on the way, it's smart to get your Volvo ready for winter storage. A clean, well-tuned carburettor comes through storage best. We recommend having the carburettors overhauled before winter. Then they'll be ready for your first drive in spring.
Maintenance and prevention tips
- Check the fuel filter regularly for blockages.
- Keep the carburettors clean and free of dirt.
- Have your carburettors overhauled at least once every few years to stay ahead of wear.
- Make sure they're properly set up at the change of seasons for optimal performance.
