man, you just posted this morning

Just proved it to myself again..the rochester on my 235..Bought a kit..It ran Ok after that but not great...Hard to start, rough idle no matter how you tuned it...took the carb apart and reset everything..same difference..

Last week I'm up late on Jim Carters site and out of the blue I buy a rebuilt carb..upgraded to automatic choke. Hook the carb up, turn the key on...step on the starter...instant nice idle first try, even with no gas in the carb..just a prime.Seems to happen to me all the time. I'm thinkin it must be better deep cleaning of the passages where they rebuid them.

Thanks..I feel better now..Got a good running engine even though I don't know why I can't do it with one of my rebuilt carbs.



when it is fixed, dont mess with it..lol
get you a rubber line to use till you can find what you want, you cant bend them..
