    So, I have a lot to get done around the house now that spring is approaching, but I would also like to start workin on the lil' red wagon. So, should I take down my Christmas lights or rebuild my carb this weekend? Pretty sure if I start one, the other won't get done.

    It's all about time management!
    Your carb will have to soak in some cleaner for a while, so you might as well get out the ladder!

    Andy's right. But take pictures of the vacuum line routing and vacuum valves BEFORE you even take off the air breather and at every angle. A witches nightmare, those lines.

    Other than that, its a about an hour to remove. Then the XMAS lights. :rofl2:

    Holy machanoli Norm. I got my carb off, readjusted the float and back on in 15 minutes with the car running.

    Oh yea, sorry I've done it 40 times since October.:evilsmile:

    I think the guys who wrote the manuals, had me in mind. "My dear son, I'm writing slow, 'cause I know you can't read too fast." :rofl: :rofl2:
