carburator
I took my carb off my 26 and it looks to me that it is very easy to
take apart (I took mine apart)and nothing to be worried about doing.I
saw nothing that needs to be very carefull about but as with any
part take note how things come apart and what direction they bolt
back on,very few parts on these carb's to worry about and nothing
like a new carb heck even your lawn mower carb has more parts to them
than these old carbs.one way is to take step by step pictures to use
as a reference when you go to put it back togeather.I had a friend
that never works on car do this 7 years ago when he pulled his head
off a 2001 gmc with all that vac. lines and wiring and it worked out
great for him didn't have any trouble getting everything back in
correct.
just a reminder, while it a simple job be sure to keep it simple and
remember to take it slow and easy its not a race and you should havee
no worrys. just another thought where the needle comes throught the
top of the float bowl it is loose and open it looks to me like it
works as a vent and seems to me that if the gas was poring into the
bowl it would also be comming out the top of the bowl too right where
the needle comes through the top of the bowl.kind of a funny shut off
when the float bowel is filling the float comes up and pushes the
needle down un like moderen floatbowls when the fule fills up it
pushes the needle up also,this one on the hudson fills up and pushes
down on the needle. seem's to me it a very simlistic aproach to
engering and I like that its about all my brain can think of anymore
