lou, just about the idle adjustment screw on the choke side there is hole that has no nipple in it or anything for that matter. is that where it should be and the carb was rebuilt, im wondering if the guy didnt put it back in

scott, im kind of dumb on some of the terminology. What is "VP" and what is the four inch black hose open to the air coming out of the bottom of the carb? Is that where you connect that tygon line Bondo mentioned? You cant just run it into the throat of the carb loose, it has to hook to...
Bondo, so where does that line hook too? I did find a small black hose under the front of the carb not sure what that does of perhaps they connected the two, i dont know.

update I had the carb rebuilt and it idles nice and seems to rev good. Runs rough at 1.5 turns up from seated on both sides but 1 turn out seems good. Does anyone know what the accel pump adjusment should be? Also i have a vacume line coming up from the fuel pump and i cant remember where it...
I cant reference any of these numbers on line for a rebuild kit. Can anyone identify the carb and kit number? Holly on the float bowl Its a two barrel
thanks

Good news sort of. No water in the tank, i changed the water fuel filter and the fuel pump is working great. So back to square one. The carb. I can not find any numbers what so ever on this carb other than it is a holley 2 bbl. Without numbers i can not get a kit for it. I considered...
I havent had a chance to work on this boat for a while so today i removed the fuel/water separator. Full of water and rust. I replaced. Boat will not start. I filled it with gas prior too. Also i pulled off the valve on the top of the holley float boat and it was dry. I filled it up with...
Starting with a new bronze filter element which is plugged, i can barely blow thorugh it. I wasnt paying attention when i pulled it out as i wasnt aware that it is different from one end to the other plus there is a spring inside. Can someone tell me the orientation of the bronze element?
randy
The in carb filter is plugged, the choke butterfly is covered in rust and it hesitates big time when throttling up fast so at the very least it need a kit but never had a lot of luck with kits
the holly 2 bbl carb i have on the 3.0 cobra im assuming is plugged up and may or may not be salvagable so for gits and shiggles i looked up the price of a new/reman for this 140 hp chev motor. What is so special about these carbs? I have seen them advertized in excess of $2000 Canadian. I...
I took it to a local marina who only works on OMC boats. The engine was brand new crate engine remanufactured so I didn’t buy used. I bought what was available in my area and it wasn’t cheap, so I wasn’t cheaping out. However, it’s been over a year and a half since they put it in and it only has...
