OK, hope this is going to make sense. I called the shop and spoke to someone, however i didnt catch the name. regardless, he was quite helpful, i was just a little under prepared. the spcs on the 17082224 are: idle tubes-0.035",DCR-0.051",upper idle air bleed-0.068,lower idle air bleed 0.077", idle discharge holes 0.063",primary jet 70, primary rod 51M, secondary rod-DR hanger-H, main air bleed-0.087", bypass air-0.054". I wrote down all recomendations given to me, except for the size of idle air bleeds, and which hanger to use.
recommendations were, idle tubes-0.036", DCR-0.055", idle discharge- 0.086", primary jet-73, secondary rod- AX and bypass air 0.100".
now the fun part. I have the original carb in pieces in a box, and it had CV rods on an L hanger. is this the correct setup for that carb, or could it be from a 7040250? I ask this because the car has the 7040250 on it now, but it leaks like crazy last time we started the car(15 years ago+-). original carb apparently did the same. the 7040250 has AX rods on a T hanger. wondering if those may have come from the original carb, and my dad switched them years ago. he doesnt remember. Also i do not have ant primary jets with original, so im hoping he may have put them in the replacement carb. can anybody tell me what size either carb had? I havent had a chance to open up the 7040250 carb yet to see whats in there. once i get the hanger and idle air bleed info, ill go ahead and order a kit from cliff. thx.
