Rochester 1bbl Carb bushings
Hello everyone, I cranked the truck up on this beautiful day. The Carb links around the linkage and the front bottom. A local carb shop said they could fix it if they had the bushings
Where can I find the best quality bushings? I found Mikes Carbs but I wanted other opinions Thanks

Re: Rochester 1bbl Carb bushings
Generally when gas leaks (links?) out the throttle shaft the carb is flooding.

Re: Rochester 1bbl Carb bushings
Why would it be flooding?
I meant "Leaks" for some odd reason I typed "Links"

Re: Rochester 1bbl Carb bushings
Everything has been replaced but the Float
It leaks near the bottom of the carb, at the front at the brass shaft. When I press on the accelerator linkage it squirts gas out of it I am about to just buy a $325 rebuilt carb that has had everything done to it

Re: Rochester 1bbl Carb bushings
Hello,
in the past i had the same problems with my carburetor, One time needle and seat were full of dirt Second time the float control was not good adjusted. I also took parts from Mike. Good qualitiy and very fast delivery (about 4days to Germany) ;-) |
