Rebuilt carb 17057253 Hot issue

<< < (2/2)

bober:
Thanks Cliff , I'll take this info w/me when I talk to the rebuilder , I think he said it was the short housing that was on the carb . I'm not sure of what kit he uses on his rebuilds other than he has assured me that they are quality parts ! But I'll be taking it to him soon for a final test drive and check the settings so I'll check on this info for sure . Thanks Cliff.

Cliff Ruggles:
Problems from heat soak may not be the same issue as falling off at WOT.

Heat soak problems go away when things cool off, or may not be present till after shut-down, then a restart within half hour or so.

Sucking the bowl dry on hard runs may simply be that the N/S assembly is too small.

If your "builder" used any over the counter kit, it's going to have the small N/S assembly in it.......Cliff

At this point it seems to be strictly a heat issue . I haven't had any noticeable bog while reg driving and WOT but this helps with this info . This carb has run well from the start . Thanks Cliff.
