Carb Rebuild

This is prababley the wrong place for this question but its for this forum.

I started the rebuild of my carb and decided to do a write up on it for the tech thread. I used microsoft word when I wrote it up, if possible whats the best way to post it up besides having to type the whole thing again.

Thanks
NIck

Copy and Paste always works....
There's the option of putting an attachment, but then it might now open for all people, so just copy and paste directly into here.

Ok mabye im missing something go to microsoft work and highlite everything I click copy. Then come here and click paste LOL. It says that I have 20000 characters and can only post up 10000 characters.

I tried only copying and pasting A 3rd of the write up and then it says that I have like 200 images and cant post up.

I dont understand how I can get this to work iv almost spent just as much time working on the carby as trying to figure this out!!!!

Do what fishy said or split it up in several post like what Andrew said.

A carb rebuild thread would be nice

First on the list was to clean the body of the carburetor to remove all grease and dirt before it can be disassembled. I used a very potent mixture of cleaner/degreaser in hot water. A toothbrushes and scrub brushes work very well to remove all heavy gunk.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

Due to the large amount of parts and objects it’s a good idea to take pics and label all parts when and before removing them so they return to their rightful location.<o></o>
Once the carburetor has dried out its time to start disassembly, start by removing the choke shaft screw that holds the choke linkage to the housing. Then remove the 3 outer retaining screws and slide the choke housing from the choke shaft.<o></o>
