This thread started by Jon G has been turned into a Tech Tip. Today (11/17/23) we posted it as part of two on the Rochester B Carb that Jon G put together with collaboration from carbking and others. It's in a PDF format so it's easy to print out, with all the images embedded in the text. The B-series overlook and issues is the subject of Part 1 and includes some basic operation of a Rochester B series carb.

Part 1 - Common Issues covers a lot of ground (12 pages - give it time to download wink ) with a helpful schematic on the last page.
Part 2 - Casting Fixes (five pages) looks specifically at repairing warped Air Horn and Fuel Bowl castings, with helpful details and images.

HERE IS THAT LINK for both, found in the Engine Tech Tip forum.


It's one of many that Jon and others have provided for the Stovebolt Collective and we thank them for that! shake

We are going to lock down this thread and we will look for any feedback over in this Engine Shop thread. Thanks. (Plus, this thread is really old! wink )
