thanks for the explanation on the carb mechanics, that's still a grey area for me but it helped to clear things up a bit. i was curious where all the fuel was going during cranking? i was working alone but when i pumped the pedal manually via the linkage i could see no evidence of fuel entering the carb
also its a rochester 2bbl carb, it was rebuilt a few years back, installed but barely used and has been sitting for the last 2 years
also i need to install a new choke cable, should the screws be set in the open or closed position? and whats proper position for "closed" completely closed or a small 1/8" gap?
(i could use a tutorial in using the choke but i will leave that for another question)
thank you
