Hi Guys,

How in hell do I remove the two rear POWER jets on this carby?

Reason being they are flooding to hell and gone!

The front main jets are fine but when the donk is running the rear jets are stuck apparently and pouring fuel into the carby.

The float itself is fine but I can't find the jets to clean them as I am sure they are just stuck in position.

When I first encountered this a few weeks back, I gave the rear bowl a gentle tap with a rubber hammer and that stopped it but this time no such luck.

I imagine I will have to pull the whole carby off and access these jets from underneath the body??

Mate if fuel is pouring in it will be your needle and seat or float height, I would reckon, especially if you tapped the bowl and it stopped flooding. I would be looking there first.

I think when he says jets he means needle and seat because a jet can't get stuck.

+1 float needle. Refurb the whole thing. Don't muck about with these things in a marine environment.
Advantage those of us that use 60 year old truck engines is simplicity. Carb removal in 20 min, kit from anywhere and DIY or take it to any mechanic if overwhelmed.
...not the guy who rebuilt your engine, if you are that guy....[emoji4]
