Definitely helpful. Rebuilding the AFB on my 1960 Series 62 now and did not mark the secondary boosters when I removed them so I wasn’t sure how they went back in. I could see that the holes under them were different sizes so they were left/right specific but I had not set them in there yet so I didn’t know about the notch.

The only thngs that can get mixed up are the jets. Everything else only really goes one way unless you force it. Josh

Good instruction. This was the best available instruction for this 59 Caddy. However, your hands are in the way of the float adjustment and the camera was too far away from the object. This is my first time of rebuilding a 4 barrel of any kind and for the most part could not see any fine detail. Camera should have been looking over your shoulder much like a student would be watching. P.S. I don't have a shop manual, nor could I find one in short order, or the time allowed.

Sorry about that. The important thing to remember when adjusting the float is to not apply any force to the needle when making adjustments. Hold the tab with long nose pliers to bend it. Josh

Mine has the big air screw in the center front. Should I back that out 1.5 turns too?

1 1/2 is a good starting point. Turning it in richens the mixture and out leans it. Josh

hi caddy daddy. I am having a problem with my cater afb 4bbl. with choke set and high idle engaged I get the carb to kicdown to 2nd step. my problem is that when choke is open car won't let off fast idle until I loosen tension on choke spring which allows butterfly to open. could choke plate be incorrect or is simply an adjustment to choke spring tension or choke rod to allow butterfly to kick fully open when choke is open
@Caddydaddy Жыл бұрын
Anthony, This could be caused by several things. The choke plate could be binding on the carb body causing it to not want to open. There could also be binding in one of the many linkages. Everything should move very freely. Remember that this is all basically a gravity-operated system so any binding, rubbing, or dirt can easily stop things up. Also, be sure all the linkages are free of oil as it will attract dirt and gum up the action. Josh

Hello. I noticed you did not put the second plunger. Is it not necessary?
@Caddydaddy 2 жыл бұрын
The second plunger is for another application with an internal dashpot. The car this carb is used on has an external dashpot. Josh
