Carb Question.

[Kirden]

Anyone know anything about this carb?

 

 

Here is the process I am trying to figure out. I pull the choke out, crank the truck, let it warm. It will now run and drive fine. However, when I puch the choke in (half way or all the way), the truck stalls. I know the breather is too small and the filter is basicly crushed, so I'm thinking it may be an air flow issue, but I have never worked on carbs because my other truck always ran fine. If anyone has any info on this carb please let me know. I willl see if I can find any other markings on the carb to send out more pics.

Turning the choke off is allowing more air so the filter should be an issuse. Most likely the idle circut/jet is pluged. I would but a rebuild kit and go throught the carb.

Alright, I will check it out. Was this carb even made for our trucks? I have trouble locating any info on it and when I typed it into ebay I found one that looks really similar but it for early GMs (which I'm guessing is what the GM stamp is for on the carb).

it's a Rochester for GM (of course) and should have numbers on it starting with a 1 or 7. The I.D. number should be around the fuel inlet.

Thank you. I was told that rebuilding the carb has a very low chance of working, but I have to do something until I can get the weber. I'll grab the I.D number and find a rebuild kit somewhere.
