Re: Wanna-be Quadrajet guru

I kind of enjoy working on Quadrajets! The best tool I've found is a good magnifier with a bright light and a eye loupe. It really helps looking into all of the passages to make sure they're clean.

When I replace the strings on my guitars I save clipped pieces to clear small passages in the carbs. I cut them 4-5 inches long and have some from the thicker E string to the thin E string.

Here's a video of another person that also uses them:

Re: Wanna-be Quadrajet guru

That's good to hear that someone local is going to get into something 'old school'. Hopefully you have better luck than me with attracting local customers.
