Hi everyone, just pulled my Rochester to send off to be rebuilt, one question...

What is this part?

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/pikappa167/1951%20Chevy/d27a5561.jpg

Looks like a rubber riser block. The reason I ask is that it looks very worn and is split on one side at the mounting point. Is it critical that I find another one before I attempt to reinstall the carb?

Thanks in advance!

Lee

If it sucks air it needs to be replaced.

Truck ran great before I pulled the carb, I'll probably replace it anyway though. What exactly is it called so I can look up the part?

Thanks.
