Tomorrow starts day one of the rebuild of my carburator... i have a bunch of seals and floats and such... hopefully it won't be too hard... any words of encouragement would be helpful.

 

Yeah as you take a jet/venturi etc out to clean it, put ita back immediately afterwards, or else you get very very lost...

 

Heehee, one of the first thing I did on my car, or any car for that manner, was rebuild the carb. Only thing I can recommend is be very... very neat. My kit didn't have extra cotter pins so watch those. One of the main things that helped me during re-assembly was taking photo's with a borrowed digital camera as I took it apart, not a necessity mind you, but helped me remember what went on top of what, linkages etc.

But now to the words of encouragement. If I can do it, just about anyone else can.
