Re: Carter 2bbl specs
The Haynes CJ manual is the best one for your engine bay area. It has
the YJ book beat hands down.
A carb kit with a new float needle and seat as well as all the gaskets
is only about $20.00 and comes with detailed directions.
The float level measured with the carb inverted is 0.25". The
accelerator pump is 0.52".

Re: Carter 2bbl specs
The instructions on the rebuild kit have one page of "clean everything"
and "don't lose anything", an expldded view so you can figure out what
part just headed for a dark corner, several pages showing how to do each
adjustment, and the back page is a spec sheet listing all the different
carbs in the family. Expect to have some left over parts from the kit.

Re: Carter 2bbl specs-- update
I took the carb. apart , cleaned it in solvent, put it back together with
new gaskets, needle ***. and float.
Adjusted everything according to the specs ( and yes , they came with the
rebuild kit, thanks for the tip)
Put it back on the engine and drove it, it ran perfect !
Idles great and much better throttle response
Now the problem I ran into is that after I shut the engine off, gas keeps
dripping gas into the venturi causing it to start very hard, especially
short after turning it off.
I had that problem before the rebuild but not nearly as bad as it is doing
it now
I noticed it also has a minor drip when idling.
When I have it running again, it idles and drives great again
I double checked the float level (0.25"), acc.pump adjustment and needles
and all seem OK
My question is, what's causing it to flood ????????????
Could it be as described in
http://www.off-road.com/jeep/tech/engine/carter.html
I'm pretty sure the idle tubes are clean. Only thing I can think off is that
they are loose (if thats possible)
Again any help would be great

Re: Carter 2bbl specs-- update
It's going to be the float level is too high. Does the needle valve
have a dampener spring on it that should be collapsed to read the true
measurement?
