Cliff sell this rubber bushing behind choke housing???

(1/4) > >>

Mr.Pontiac:
Seems they usually dry rot and fall apart. Its simply a rubber bushing that sits in the carb. body(7043272) behind the choke housing .Any special bushing or name its called. Seen alot of them again just fall apart after a while!! Help!!!

Cliff Ruggles:
We include 2 of those will each carb kit where a hot air or electric choke was used....Cliff

Mr.Pontiac:
We may be talking 2 differant area,s this fits inside bowl where choke arm comes thru. Not the little small ones
Just measured one, its 9/16 o.d. backside is .500 witch fits inside bowl.

carmantx:
Some hot air carbs have those that I run across, but many don't.  It's more of a hard plastic spacer isn't it?  I have not removed them, and not had one broken up so I haven't needed to source it.

Cliff Ruggles:
The choke housing seal for the vacuum supply is not rubber, it's hard plastic.

The seal for the shaft is a rubber lip seal.  There is another one in the choke housing.  Both should be replaced during rebuilding as the rubber goes bad over the years and you can get a leak in the system.

If an electric choke is being used, you can leave out the rubber seal in the choke housing, it is not needed, but still install the one between the housing and the carb to seal off where the shaft goes thru.....Cliff
