I have gas leaking from the pump diaphragm assembly cover of the motorcraft carb,2BBL,360,75,auto.Is this easily repairable,or is a new carb in my future? Thanks

 

You mean the Accelerator pump? If so, 4 screws, 1 spring and $3.99 for a new diaphragm. Thats pretty much it.

 

Thanks Old93junk I haven't had a carbed vehicle for a long time.I was using the part description from a diagram.Accelerator pump it is. I will get to it tomorrow.If you have any tips I would be glad to hear them,changing fluids and plugs is about my level of skill.Thanks again.

 

It's not a bad job, just make sure you don't lose the spring that's under the diaphragm cover. After you get it installed, pump the throttle a couple times to re-prime the accelerator pump.

 

Thanks for the help,kind of nice not having gas leaking onto the engine.
