Incredible, when I first saw that 1938 carburetor covered in rust, and everything locked up solid, I thought that's a really nice brick that used to be a carburetor. I'm amazed that you were able to successfully get it apart, cleaned up and rebuilt it into a working carburetor again. Think about today's components, add 85 years. I bet you'd never have the same results.

I've found heat from a handheld propane torch to be the #1 weapon on these carbs, especially the brass screws. Heat em til they flash green, let em cool, and they'll come right out. I was cringing as you took off the bowl, waiting for the threads to strip LOL. For pulling the nozzle, I like threading it with a tap, putting a bolt in it, then using a nut on the bolt with some washers to pull out the nozzle. I have the proper size drill bits to clean the passages, it's nice to use it to pull out copious amounts of rust. This was a very nice comprehensive video of rebuilding these carbs!

Great job on that rust infested carb. Didn't think you were going to have much luck with getting it torn apart. You accomplished the impossible and it's now ready to be put in service.

This is a very educational video. The comments also have valuable information by those that know. I have a Zenith carburetor to work on and this is very helpful how-to in this I can use for my application.

Good job and the old stuff seems to do better because it was built with more 'meat' to them so they didn't bust as easy. I usually used kroil or 50/50 atf and acetone. Soak it down and keep it soaked for a while and a hand impact is a handy thing to have. NOW to put that carb on something that needs it. Blessings to yall!

I do all my own carbs, I’ve seen about everything you can imagine lol. I’ve had some that look decent on the outside and are horrible inside and some that you’d think have no hope by looking at the outside and look almost new when you open them up!

Excellent video Jonelstar :) back years ago my late Father ask me help out on vechile repairs also I ask what was changing exhaust manifolds plus whole on his 1990 Chevrolet 2500 3/4 ton and he said yes! So pick up 6 can of super pentriotion fluid called Realsea and torch with 4 cylinders of fuel ! So the weekend come up we both dug in to and my dad had joke does can have honey in smell like it and check ingredients said it did Lol ! But took bolts and everything apart no problem no break bolts to except the tailpipe clamp was hacksaw off ! Then friend of family need me do job get bees away from his Attic vent door I had spray that Realsea spray keep them forever and never saw again ever! Then in 2010 was last could spray pentrion fluid ever again but need get because my dad need help get lug rims so get new tires rims on truck they were rusted so bad so use fluid and brought no problem so put light flim grease of moly type high temperature to no problem ever too! But when came wash up from doing outside stuff my late mom be funny said why playing with honey on told I her what about pentriotion fluid smell and she said buy it more love smell of it over others fluid ! My dad yes playing with honey fluid anytime ! Yes it funny though like Lol!

I’m wondering when you are going to continue work on the Oliver 70.

Hey I have a model A that I put a model B carb on, before I get it running I'm wondering how I should set the mixture screws for the load valve and (what ever other adjustment they have. I can't remember the name),

I noticed that you didn't use any special drill in the video. Or did you.

Can I ask why you use WD40 ? WD40 is mostly water, from what I have heard. Could this be incorrect? I love the PB Blaster, I use that on all mr rusty nuts and bolts. I have rebuild 2, 4B John Deere 2 bottom plows. The PB Blaster worked like a champ.

You should consider buying a Lotto ticket. lol
