Thought I'd share a great guide that I found online about rebuilding a Rochester Model B.

http://bangshift.com/gallery/tech-gallery-rebuilding-a-rochester-b-carb-gallery/?pid=22093

I printed a copy to use as a step by step reference at my workbench. It was very helpful.

The pictures do not flow in order if you click through the slide show, but if you move your cursor over the pictures in the gallery view, each picture is numbered correctly. After I printed the pictures, I used the gallery view and my cursor to sort them into the correct order.

The text does not print with the pictures. This will sound tedious and I'm not a computer whiz, so I copied the text for each slide into a Word document with a reference number for each page. Then I printed the Word document, cut it up with scissors, then used Scotch tape to attach them to the correct pictures. Old fashioned cut and paste!!

A few of my notes--

Slide 33 refers to the Large Ball in the kit.

Slide 41 refers to the Small Ball in the kit.

There is no slide 42.

There is a missing step between slides 43 and 44--replacing the metering jet. Refer to metering jet removal on slide 11 and reinstall between 43 and 44.

Can pulley tension too tight on Chevy 235 cause carb flooding? I changed alternator and I smelled gas when I started engine. I shut it off and found lots of gas on manifold. Could I have made tension too tight?

ohwell
