Heavy Z Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 I just got my first carter carb - it's identical to an edelbrock 4 barrel and my experience is with holleys so I could use some advice, I need to change the secondaries. How is it done? I took off the air cleaner and looked around the carb but I guess I'm missing something. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaparral2f Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Do you know what carter you have? The secondary jets are on the floor of the float bowl. I think you have to pull the top of the carb, and unscrew the jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Yeah, these are like the old AFBs. You'll have to remove all the top screws (about 8 of them I think), lift off the top plate and you'll see the jets at the very bottom of the bowl. I believe the needles come out with the top, so care is required in placing the top plate back onto the main body when done, making sure everything is lined up and needles are properly inserted in the jets.
