Yer hairsplitting. Change the float level and you change the level of the fuel in the jet. Change the jet height and you change the level of the fuel in the jet. Same thing by different means. Cheers

Of course changing the fuel level in the jet changes the mixture. It's essentially a gravity-feed system from the bowl to the jet. Why else would one adjust the float height? When you adjust the jet

I have towing insurance. It covers my RV and other cars. They'll bring gas, change a tire or tow the vehicle, essentially to where you want them to, within 100 miles. It costs less than $100 a year.

You could take the other side back apart and compare the dimensions of the two spacers. If they're the same, then there's something wrong elsewhere in the hub or with the axle. If they're different,

Er, if it has end play with no shims already, shortening the spacer is not the answer. Why not add shims until it locks up, then remove enough shims to establish the proper end play? Sounds like it s

Barney, if you ever have to use towing insurance to bring your RV in to the shop, you'll recoup the insurance cost in one fell swoop. Now, on the B or my other cars, I've never personally had to have

Hi Colin, You've diagnosed it alright. Leaky head gasket or cracks in the head casting. Those bubbles in the overflow are the giveaway; combustion gasses in the coolant. A way to make sure is to have

Another way around the problem is to remove the brake booster and use the earlier dual master cylinder. Who needs power brakes on a B anyway? Cheers, CR a 1975 /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/
