carb rebuild

I have a 1976 F150 with a 390 and a 4 barrel Holley carb. It's never been rebuilt and I want something to do.

how do I find out which rebuild kit I need?

Take the list # off the choke horn into your local parts house.

The tag on my carb reads: "D5 TE EA" on the top line, and the second says "6A 5"

As said before, take those to your parts house. FYI that's a Ford (Motorcraft) part number, not a Holley list number, but nonetheless it's the number you need. They will cross reference your rebuild kit.

Yeah, I'll take it to the parts store.

I just thought I'd list it awhile, since I'll still be driving the truck.

Hope I'm able to do the carb rebuild myself! I'll be heading to the store probably Monday.

It's the correct carburetor. Holley 4150 was used on 390 4v.

I decoded the carburetor tag in his other thread in the 1973/79 section.
