Hi all. I think I'm headed down a path to rebuilding my Rochester carb that's in my '68 FJ40. I'm not sure where to get the rebuild kit, tho. I've seen links for rebuilt Rochesters and some rebuild kits, but not kits for a Rochester.
Also, in a couple days, I'm planning on flushing my fuel tank to diagnose a new problem. My engine is running roughly and is extremely difficult to start. I was told by the guys at Iron Pig that it could be either a fuel prob or a carb prob or both...hence my upcoming projects. Is flushing the tank as straight-forward as it seems? (remove tank, drain/rinse, reinstall, replace filter, refill, disconnect fuel line from carb, turn engine to pump fuel thru line until it looks clean, reattach) Any tricks/caveats I need to watch out for? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Craig
