Carter WCD Carburetor Rebuild Kit - K357

Carter WCD, 2 barrel carburetor rebuild kit

If you like having the best then this is it.

FEATURES:

• Accelerator pump w/leather cup
• Float bowl gasket
• Throttle body gasket
• Metering rod cover gasket
• Needle & seat
• Flange (mounting) gasket

 FLOAT: Make sure your float is a single hinge two pontoon float versus two seperate pontoons on a split hinge. The FL1023 will not replace the split hinge floats. Most WCD carburetors use the single hinge float but some were modified for split hinges.

1. Carter Applications - use 3 gaskets
2. All Others - use 1 or 2 gaskets

Remove or add gaskets to get the float to close to level. You will still need to set the float level.

Accelerator Pump - Apply 2 drops of oil to the leather cup before installing. Polish the pump well with 2000 + grit to clean off any scale.

Tips:

The vacuum piston has a tendency to get frozen in the well. Keep this in mind when taking the top off. Don't force anything.
Soak the carburetor parts overnight in a bucket of carburetor cleaner (any brand will do)
Wash all chemicals off of the carburetor with hot water.
Polish the pump well with crocus cloth so that the accelerator pump glides freely.
Apply a few drops of oil to the leather cup of the accelerator pump before installing.
Use silicon spray lubricant on the gaskets. This will keep them from sticking.
Make sure the vacuum piston is clean and moves freely. Clean, clean, clean.
