- Press screwdriver against float axle (17) at slotted side of float hinge bracket and force axle through slotted side of bracket, then remove axle with fingers from opposite side of bracket and remove float assembly (18).
- Remove fuel valve needle (part of 20), bowl to body gasket (21) and venturi (54).
- Remove fuel valve seat (20) and fiber washer (19).
- Remove idle jet (16) from machined surface of throttle body, using a small screwdriver.
- Remove idle adjusting needle (5) and friction spring (4) from side of throttle body.
- Unscrew throttle stop screw (15) until threaded end of screw is flush with throttle lever.
- Close throttle and scribe across throttle body and throttle levers as a guide to correct re-assembly of parts.
- File off riveted or peened end of throttle plate screws, being careful not to damage throttle plate or throttle body bore.
- Remove throttle plate screws (2) and throttle plate (3); then remove throttle shaft and lever assembly (14).
- To remove throttle shaft packing and packing retainer from throttle shaft hole, screw a 5/16” fine thread taper tap into packing retainer (10) until firmly seated. Insert long punch or rod in opposite shaft hole and drive punch against end of tap until retainer is free of throttle body. Remove tap and repeat operation for removal of packing and retainer from opposite shaft hole.
NOTE: Do not disassemble throttle plate, throttle shaft and stop lever assembly, throttle packings and packing retainers from throttle body unless throttle shaft is bent or otherwise damaged or unless there is damage or visible wear to other components of throttle assembly. Do not remove throttle shaft bushings unless inspection indicates replacement is necessary.
DISASSEMBLY OF FUEL BOWL BODY
- Remove main jet adjustment assembly (24) and fiber washer (25), using a 1/2” wrench.
NOTE: Some models have main passage plug (23) in place of main jet adjustment.
- Remove hex drain plug (29) from bottom of fuel bowl.
- Remove main jet (26) and fiber washer (27).
- Remove main discharge jet (52) and fiber washer (51) from center of large opening in machined surface of fuel bowl.
- Remove well vent jet (53) from center of large opening in machined surface of fuel bowl, using a small screwdriver.
- Scribe across air intake body section, choke bracket and choke lever as a guide to correct re-assembly of parts, then remove choke lever spring (42) from choke lever and choke bracket.
- Remove choke shaft nut (40) and lockwasher (41), then remove choke lever.
- Remove choke bracket screws (33) and lockwashers (32) and remove choke bracket (31).
- Remove choke shaft hole plug (50) from opposite side of air intake.
