Thanks for that advice. So I was looking at some videos about application. It seems the instructions require the tank to be rotated for 3 hrs to keep the sealer from pooling. I was wondering if this...
Thanks, that's good advice. I did a little more research and it turns out a lot of boaters use Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket No.3 for this kind of problem. A pint can costs $8.
Thanks, I agree. I was going to add a sediment bowl on my system with my current fuel pump until I realized the dual action has a sediment bowl and I would need that fuel pump for my vacuum...
Good luck with the rebuild. I had mine blow apart, but luckily they didn't take out an eye or get lost.
So...
I installed the pressure regulator to hang off the carb with a couple L brackets....
Ok, that's good info. I'm still in the process of getting this thing running. I've had the jeep sipping gas out of a gas can: plastic gas can> rubber gas hose> fuel filter> fuel pump> rubber gas...
Thanks, I've been off line a little while now, but I'm back.
I absolutely agree about the fuel pressure regulator now. I ended up getting a Holley 1208, offered by KW. It has a range between 1 to...
Well, I managed to get it going again and it ran for about 3 or 4 minutes until my improvised Coke bottle gas tank ran out of gas.
I couldn't get it started again. This is a multi variable problem....

It's still flooding, but at least I'm narrowing on the target.
So...
According to that video, it's definitely a problem with the fuel not being closed off.
I pulled the carb apart. This is what I can't figure out, the vast difference between the float...
Thanks,
I recently rebuilt this carb, so the needle is new. The float moves freely, but when I pull the carb apart, I'll check to make sure it doesn't have fuel inside (?).
I think I may have...
My CJ3B is finally showing signs of life.
After going through recommended long dormant engine restart procedures, I started cranking it. The carb flooded badly, actually dripping over the side--at...
