Hi Mike, I bought a cheapo Chinese carb, everything was actually pretty well made but the metering rod screw wasn’t long enough to properly adjust. So I just bent where the metering rod attaches up to “raise” the initial position of the metering rod. Seems to be proper now.

Nice to see an instructional video that’s down & dirty and to the point 💪🏽 Thanks Mike, I just got my rebuild kit 🇺🇸

I'm looking for a replacement spring do you stock them?

I just rebuilt my R- 2 barrel that sits on my 64 225 Buick v6.replaced the power valve also. good quality parts. runs great!

Looks good!

Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hola Buenos días hermano

Hola Buenos días compañero

Great video. If I make those adjustments to secondary and I’m still getting a lean bog when secondaries open, should I straighten the s linkage a little more to try to delay the secondaries opening ??

Thanks Mike. Young guy who just bought a 79 F250 300 with fuel in oil. I plan on replacing the fuel pump and rebuilding carb before driving it so your videos are invaluable!

Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷. Great content!

Awesome video!

Great video! Very helpful, thank you so much for making this

great video

on my edelbrock 1403 it has a similar thing, but a different design. Its just dangling around and I am not sure if it works properly. But I cant find how it should look or be adjusted. It does not prevent the secondaries from opening when the choke is closed and it does not necessarily let the secondaries open if the choke is open. Its just dangling around and if the secondaries open is just random.

You totally saved me with this. Thank you!

Dont you just Love the balloons that pop up on the screen, right when your showing something important to your viewers. Gotta get that advertising in on ya.🤯🤪🤬

Im having trouble with mine. Doesn't stay idle when put in gear. I replaced the intake gasket and the top lid, what I'm noticing the idle mixture screws dont do much to the rpms until completely closed. Definitely get air somewhere or can the float do that? I dont smell flooding. The car hasn't drove it years but it was working fine before.

I have a 1979 Lincoln Mark V Cartier edition with the 6.6 engine. The tag on my carburetor says 9V VA. That’s it. What kit do I need

Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤❤❤

We can't see what your doing your hand is in the way. No help.

Mike! Please help!! I have a 1965 scout international with the 1904 carburator. When I was removing my carburator for cleaning, the jet that screws into the gas inlet has gone missing. It's the little brass piece that screws inside the float bowl before you screw in the gas fitting. Do you happen to know the sizing or have a replacement I could buy? Thank you in advance!

Thanks again Mike, Cheers!

Sir, you are a genius!!! Had two stuck and no idea how to do it. This worked in minutes! Thank You so much!

Ok, my carb has no passage where the ball and weight go. However, I removed a hex shaped weight that had a rubber recessed tip on one end. There were also 2 balls, one for the accelerator pump and one for the dashpot. I don't believe there was a ball in the hole for the spark valve, but it's possible that the weight could have fallen out of this passage. Anyone have experience with this setup who can confirm or refute my thoughts?

Hey, Mike - great video. At about 8:16 when installing the venturi cluster you mention "this is where the bigger check ball goes". Did you mean to say the smaller check ball? Doesn't the bigger check ball go under the vacuum pump?

Where is the Spring that goes to the side

Hi mike. I already bought some stuff from your page. But right now I'm having issues with the carb. It's flooding and I notice that the clip that came with the carb rebuild kit get stuck with the pin that make the carb rotate. It would be any problem if I don't set a clip to the float needle?? I'm working on a rochester 2gv

Very detailed in the explanation of the workings of the accelerator pump system for this carburetor. Great job 👍

So what level do you measure?

Thanks Mike! I have seen accelerator pumps that are operated by a rod, but I haven't seen one that is vacuum operated. My 1986 F-150 started coughing and sputtering (and sometimes stalling) when I tried to accelerate. I took the top off and could not figure out how that pump operated! You explained it! Thank you. I took the pump system apart (and cleaned the metering rod) cut a nick into the base gasket that was pushing up into the vacuum orifice, put it back together, and it worked! It took a few cycles of accelerating to work smoothly (I think the pump needed to fill with fuel?) Thank you, Paul P.S. it was a cheap chinese knock off !

Buenos días amigo mirá cuántas vueltas le pones a la entrada de aire

I have fuel leaking from my choke pull off vacuum port what could cause this? Ive been through the carb and has been doing great and now shakes bad at idle in gear and thats the only thing Ive found but I dont understand where or how it would be leaking into that actuator. Thanks for any help or advice! Love your videos!

Could you please tell me where do you connect the larger port to? I have the smaller one connected to the back of the carb. Thanks

Hello I have a Aisan 2bbl carburetor cold start no fuel to carburetor I have to manually fill carb with fuel to get it to start while the engine is cold do you know what can cause it I tested the app by sending power to the 2 wire circuit going to the app and I see it’s clicking and moving I checked if fuel is getting to the fuel pump by disconnecting the lines and fuel was coming out

Number = CFM .98 = 190 1.01 = 240 1.02 = 245 1.08 = 287 1.14 = 300 = 29 mm (29.5 mm ebay carb = 1.16” 350cfm claimed) 1.21 = 351 1.23 = 356 1.33 = 424 Ebay / zon carb is 13.5mm booster venturi

I need the video for installing throttle shaft bushings

God bless guys like Mike! We don't want a U tuber we need wisdom!

Thanks for sharing your experience, you are a gem!

I’m working on a Willy’s flat head six cylinder. The owner bought a Kipa 152 carb for it, not much info online. What I have found says this maybe a YFA replacement or copy?? Looking for info on where all the lines connect. Any help would be great

Hi Mike I have a what I think is a 2gv. The choke has a rod going to the manifold. I wanted to put an accelerator pump. It has no ball in the pump cylinder. The pump appears to go down in the boar farther than the slot in the side of the cylinder. Gas does not refill. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

What’s the spring on the float?

I have this same carb. Is there a way to get more fuel in my float? My car will die indefinitely but if I take it for a drive it will die within 10 minutes and won’t start again unless I let it sit.

I have a wd-o carb. Number on the bottom is 277 . Do you have a kit for that?

do you happen to know what the specifications for the float are suposed to be, level, weight etc?

You know what's fun is when you have fuel in the float if you use your soldering gun and heat up the float gasoline will spray out of the pin hole then you can solder up that pinhole.

8:05 I cheated the rebush on my 41 Plymouth throttle shaft. I cut a groove in the throttle shaft and put in an oring, worked great.

What if my carb doesnt have this rod or the bracket arm. The passage is plugged, but the vent is open into the bowl. Are there some of these carbs that didnt use the vent rod?

Bought your kit and rebuilt my Holley 2280. Purrs like a wolverine again.

.101. Is that inches (ie. roughly 1/10 of an inch)? So would you call it a "number 101 jet" or is it a "number 10 jet"? Thanks?
