I'm hoping that you have an unspoken carb for a 78 2F. The current carb is a desmoged Asain. I do have the fuel return line and would like to retain it. Can you id which version I should get?
FJ40's & FJ55's mechanical linkage type (non throttle cable type) this is mainly for you 2f folks
Includes air cleaner spacer and choke cable stop. $225 shipped
Then add $25 for the fuel return tap.
Make sure you put in thenotes of the transaction that you want the tap. Though I have yet to forget to do one it's eventually going to happen.
Aftermarket Accelerator Cable -
Fits 1970-9/73 - Housing length is 25 inches - Cable length is 31 inches - End of housing is threaded - Cable has barrel on each end
Cool, money sent for a late model carb and distributor. Throttle cable on order. I'm also planning on putting a Pertronix in the dizzy. I'm not sure if that changes how you set it up.
Carbs are in. This is Version 2. Very few mods were made other than castings being cleaned up and a few tweeks. One thing that has changed is th way it's packaged. No more me having to send it in a box within a box. Now it comes in a single box incased in styrofoam. Makes a nice presentation. I'm working all weekend on getting everyones carbs out that have paid. I'm sorry for all the delays.
Hoping you've got another for me !! Just sent paypal, two different payments. One payment for carb, and another for the 25.00 to tap the return line. I'm dumb and couldn't figure how to use your payment button and increase it. Duh !! Can't wait to get this on my vehicle.
I saw in another post that the dizzys you send out don't work with the Pertronix ignition. Is this the case? I got the following to use with your setup:

Do this. Mail me your pertronix and I'll install it in one of my dizzy's. If I cannot get it to work I'll refund you the money on the dizzy and pay you for the pertronix. How is that for a deal?
I got 4 F carbs and 4 fuel return carbs done this weekend. They ship today. If you have ordered a carb from me before Aug 13th it's either shipped or shipping today. I do see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Gasket question. I pulled my old carb and am ready to install my new THC carb.
My insulator has the bonded gaskets on both sides. They look perfect.
Some people have suggested that they should be scraped off and replaced.
Jim C. has suggested that they are reusable and should be left intact.
Has anyone else who has installed a THC carb reused their gaskets? Looking for good or bad experience.
My gut feel is to reuse the manifold side as is, and to put a thin layer of gas resistant, non hardening #2 form a gasket on the upper side because the new carb might not be exactly the same as the old. Thoughts?
Edit: Too late. I just reused the gaskets with no sealer. Figured if Jim said it, it must be ok. I did the carb cleaner leak test after I got it running and...no leaks.
