Love your dash . Your car is a D 25  be careful when ordering parts always order P15 parts.

Don't ask how I know .

Wow what a difference . The odometer is ready to roll over soon.

I think the Plymouth has the nicest cluster .

.

I have also seen the mechanism s for sale can't remember where .

Try Andy Bernbaum or Moparpro  or Rock Auto

You will have to push in on the stainless ring .you will see a pin that has to be pushed out to release the handle .

Use a finishing nail or something of similar diameter to start it out them grab it with pliers

Its hard to believe the handle is bent  ,but you should have no trouble replacing it I have seen them for sale on line

I hope that helps 

My carb was doing the same thing after a rebuild also with the different style of needle assemble .

I solved the problem by adjusting the float less gas in the bowl. I also wrapped the fuel line with aluminized heat shroud from the fuel pump to the carb.

Maybe yours is different ,but this is what they are referring to.

I know they sell them at Andy Bernbaums don't know the model # but they have new old stock and used no guarantee if they work 

I was surprised that i put 1000 miles a year on my 48. 

What a nice car, I am a bit partial to 4 door cars though.

Thank you ,no we didn't get the flood that the eastern seaboard got .Nova Scotia got hammered though .

My tube has no screen .

It is supposed to be back towards the transmission .

No O rjng  it is a tight fit. It will come out just wiggle it 

Just an update moved filter to a much better spot. 

Good for you looking good .

Your oil stain on the ceiling is an old mouse nest pee stain ,and most definitely the source of the old car smell.

Thanks guys I will move it .

This is how mine is situated

Just an update I chickened out on doing it myself and had a mechanic rebuild it he found lots of crap in the bowl and the needle wasn't seating properly . The good news was the throttle body was good .

Thanks once again for all your help.

I have the same rocker trim on my 48 Canadian Dodge which is a Plymouth body with Dodge badges.

Nope I got it.

Thanks to everyone for your help First thing I did Sam was check that all screws were tight ,they were 

I have ordered a new carb kit it should arrive in a week coming from one cost to near the Nations Capital 

Yes they are expensive everything comes from the States so there is the exchange on our dollar and then duty fees

The good thing is its made in the States.

I will attempt to fix the problem myself it will take me out of my comfort zone but I have good advice 

One last question when I was under the hood I pulled the throttle and gas leaked out around both sides of the throttle valve attachment on both sides( not a lot but noticeable). Is this fixable ? 

Thank you gentlemen truth is it did happen once before only not as bad . Next question can I remove the fuel line take out the needle and seat assemble and clean it or order a new assemble ?

I have a bit of a problem yesterday while returning home from a cruise night  i could smell gas and then the car started running rough so I pulled over shut it off pulled the hood release  and gas was dripping , more like poring down out off the carb  I tried to start it again after about ten minutes no luck . After failing to arrange for a tow about a half hr had passed I tried again and drove it home with no further issues. i had my fire extinguisher ready thankfully didn't need it .

I am assuming it was a choke issue that flooded it but this is a problem I have to fix . No idea where to start  .Do I get a new carb. this one was rebuilt five years ago by an mechanic . my car is a 48 plodge with a stromberg carb

Thank you for any ideas you may have

I had my 48 out a couple of times put on close to 50 Klm. Got gas and enjoyed the ride.

Napa sells them  Gold 1080

Ok thanks to everyone I will leave it facing firewall
