This will be quite a long post, to see it all, click “Continue reading” below. A while back I promised that we would upload a walkthrough on rebuilding the carburetors, here it is!

Rebuilding a Carburetor
This assumes that you’ve already disassembled your carburetor and that you have all the required parts, either new or used.

In order to make things easier to see, we’ve laid out all the parts here. Begin by assembling the nozzles in the upper part of the carburetor housing in the steps shown below.
