I started digging into this carburetor and have some questions (First Time Rebuilding one):
Do you guys soak everything in the cleaner, including plastic and rubber pieces, floats, etc?
What about the filter element? How do you clean it?
Do I need to remove the blades, and throttle shaft? If so where can I get replacement screws?
What type of screwdriver is needed to remove the butterfly shaped screws on the metering block?
1. This currently has an inline glass filter, is there something better I should be using?
2. I need a fast idle screw and spring, anyone know where to find one (specifically the spring)?
3. The metering block was REALLY stuck, I ended up using a paint scraper to pry it off. In the process I knocked the tip off of the tab. It looks like a locating boss. Is this an issue?
4. This piece fell off as I was taking something else apart, no clue where it goes, it appears to be #75 in the diagram:
5. Someone has been here before, on of the mixture screws was missing a spring. Any idea where to get one?
6. Should this ball be removed, if so how?
7. Should this ball be removed, if so how?
8. Per the diagram this should have a needle and not a ball, is this correct?
9. I ordered a power valve Holley said would work (10.5), it is completely different, the one in the rebuild kit is similar, but different...will it work. Does anyone know where to get an exact match?
10. The Float needles are different, will they work?
11. Do I pull these plugs on the metering block?
