carburator/ 223 i6
My carb is leaking on my 65 F100 240 ci . They aren't all that expensive as I've noticed. Should I rebuild it or just replace it???

Rebuild it. There is no reason to replace it unless it is seriously broken. Mine leaked and i rebuilt it for about $20 and it works well and doesn't leak. If it leaks its because it has something broken that is in the rebuild kit.

Ahhh Haaaa....The J is what threw me off. Thanks to you guys I'll get this figured out.Thanks so much for all the info. I know where to look for help.
Brakes next issue: No pedal pressure. Master was empty,Lines are all great shape I got the back bleeders to open with no problem.Haven't tried the front ones yet. So do I start with the fron ones 1st then go to the back ,to bleed? Do you think the master has dried out after sitting 5 yrs and should be replaced? I filled it and of course..no pedal when pumped .

65 240 carb.
Metal tag of course is missing . And can't seem to see the stamped #'s on the base. Guess it would be best to remove it from the intake??
Or can anyone give me a guess at what carb it is by the picture in my Garage.???
