1970 q-jet 7040262 jet and metering rod size help

(1/1)

Mr.Pontiac:
Just bought a decant basket case carb. 7040262. it had 71 jets intact but no metering rods, can i get some help on witch rod to use?? I am guessing something like a 41 or 40 rod??

Kenth:
7040262 1970 Bonneville Q-jet uses #72 jets and primary rods stamped #44. Secondary rods stamped BE.

Cliff Ruggles:
Is it going on the stock 1970 Pontiac engine with no modifications?

Even if it was it's too lean on this new fuel with the stock jets/metering rods.  Call the shop if you need a better calibration and rebuild kit to get it up to par for this new fuel and calibrated for what you are going to use it on......tks....Cliff

Mr.Pontiac:
Thank you Both
