Goodmorning all,
Happy Thursday! I hope the work day goes by quick & your able to enjoy the rest of it relaxing.
If there's anyone in the Reno/Carson area that would like to come out to the NV State Legislature Building in Carson City this Saturday between 11am & 2pm, we'll be there to get the word out about Nevada's Wild Horses & how they are being mistreated, the holding pens & rounded ups for slaughter, & the misuse of funds & lands that are supposed to be available to the wild horses & burros(& other animals). The wild horses are Nevada's State Representatives(on the State Quarter) & most importantly...they ARE a protected species.
Many people come to visit Nevada & one of their favorite attractions is to see the wild Mustangs roaming the lands wild & free!
Please come out to show your support & help Save our Wild Horses!

Morning everyone. I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.
Well, I tore apart the the Carter YFA carb on the truck yesterday and soaked it overnight.
unfortunately there seems to be some irreparable damage from the many years of use.
I will get it back together today. I hope to get it running better than it was.
It won't be perfect, but will have to continue to do until I can afford a replacement.
Technologiq: sounds fun! Wish I could go camping again sometime.
Donna: Good luck with your save the horse/burro rally. Another worthy cause.

Morning Greg, Donna! Greg, hopefully that carb will last until you can replace it. What did you find that was messed up in it?

stripped butterfly screw holes, air/fuel mixture screw over tightened and busted through the bore, and a couple other things. Those are just the ones I remember from last night.
It will work but will never be properly adjusted.
The rebuild will at least fix the leaks and the stuck fuel diaphragm rod.
It somewhat explains why the truck wouldn't idle without the choke in a specific place after warm up.
