Title: Question about resizing main bleeds
Post by: 73 Z28 on April 15, 2009, 05:49:03 PM

I have harvested some brass restrictions from some parts carbs and was wondering if I can just drive them into place with a hammer and punch or do I need to epoxy them to ?

Thanks for any help with this
Paul

I did the same thing to my air horn, and busted the main bleed in the air horn... I think they sell some sort of screw-in deal you can use rather than hammering something into your carb.  I found out the hard way you gotta be very careful...  ;D

We have screw in main airbleeds as they have discontinued the pressed in variety many years ago.  I contracted to have some made, and they are supposed to be here this week, so we should have both styles available soon.....Cliff
