Oh carbs are fun to work on as long as you don’t end up with spare parts. Good job 👍

Some tips if I may...on slotted fixings use the widest screwdriver you can, this means you are driving the screw from the very edges, increasing leverage reducing the risk of damage, consider using a small spot of mild thread lock on throttle butterfly screws... the thought of those vibrating loose and going through the engine doesn't bear thinking about, and get a magnetic parts tray, you'll never lose steel parts again. Nice video!

When working on jets in carbs, it is better to always use hollow ground, or cabinet makers parallel drivers rather than wedge shape standard flat head drivers. They risk damaging the jet slot and/or surrounding threads. Better yet, genuine service tools come up for sale every now and then.

A proper sonic bath, you mean the Mrs wouldn't let you use the dishwasher? 😂

Excellent video, Matt! I always replace the float pin as otherwise the float can sometimes stick. While I dont have a sonic cleaner, I also always gently wire brush the inside of float chamber cover ,where the gasket sits. I also do the same to the top of the float bowl gasket area. I find helps to stop the float bowl gasket from leaking.

Good stuff. My sonic bath (same design but different badge) doesn't froth that much!!!!! Ain't that buzzin' annoying after a while? Glad you edited out the sound. I hopefully get my 'new' '44 GPW on the road at end of month!!!!!

Thanks Tom, I really appreciate that. This video took a lot of editing and choosing music takes hours, also there is a copyright claim on the video because of the music even though I checked it was creative commons so I probably won't get anything for it, so I appreciate that you enjoyed it!

Thanks for all your carb videos, Matt. I viewed them for my first attempted rebuild. I say "attempted" because I'm not getting any fuel to the carb when I push on the gas peddle or throttle at the carb. Any ideas where I should look for trouble? Thanks, again.

Matt, do you know if this anodised coating can be re-applied? Were the carb bodies also varnished after anodising? Best regards, Gert-Jan
@Greendot3193 жыл бұрын
Hi Gert-jan, I think the anodised finished is a post war finish, I don't think the wartime carbs had it, so no need to worry there!
