Normspeed Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Rebuilt one of my spare carbs and I noticed that there's a part on the sheets that was not in the carb. For curiosity I opened up two other parts carb bodies and none had this part. Anyone who has torn down some B&B carbs, ever see part #145-17, main vent tube? It's supposed to be inside the angled passage in the main carb body, covered by an aluminum plug in the bottom of the case. All 3 that I checked, there was a long angled passage but I didn't see a tube inside like the blowup shows. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normspeed Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Thanks Norris. I guess it's in there but not real visible. I settled for cleaning mine with parts dip and carb spray, and blew it out with compressed air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norrism1 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 normspeed, Your welcome, I used to clip off a piece of my wire brush to clean it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
