Looking for someone to rebuild a carb for a 1935 Chevy Standard Coach. Please message me either here or email.

Hi Peter
I'll repeat my question here.
Has it done this as long as you've known the car?
Or is this something that has developed more recently?

Chipper has rebuilt carbs forever and is an excellent rebuilder. Another name to contact would be Dean, Area #1 Director. I believe that Dean rebuilds Carter W-1 carburetors. His phone is listed in the G&D on the page which lists the Board of Directors.

Ditto my reply for your other post. While it may seem a good idea to cover multiple forums for some of us " old timers it causes confusion as we "think" we are having brain fade thinking we have replied but can't see the post.

Hi Stovblt
It has been doing it since I put the car together last year. Took the carb apart somewhat. Took off bowl, float, etc. but didn't remove jets or any small parts. Cleaned up and painted and adjusted so it would start and run smooth. Drove it around last year and it runs pretty good just rich and getting poor mileage. I have a couple of carbs and used some parts from them if they were better than the ones I took off, top cover had dents, metering rod had a bend, etc

I have sent my carb out for rebuild. Hope to get it back by the end of the month. Thanks for all the advice.
