A supposed remanufactured carb job full of sandblasting sand. Anyone have the adjustment specs on this. Any idea where to get this and AFB specs. We run into this on these old carbs and there is no info out there. We got it all cleaned out and it is not leaking anymore. We have Chris Craft CD, but that only covers Stromberg and Zenith.

283 R15 Corvette, float height and float drop would be great and accelerator pump. Got it on the boat today and big difference with no sand in it. But the correct settings would be great so we don't have to spend so much time on it. Not enough juice to start, but once. As soon as he started making changes the boat died and battery was too low to restart. We just got this job and another mechanic was in the middle of it before he got into a bad car accident. We're trying to help the guy out and it is in the middle of nowhere and we just want to get it done. We will be putting electronic ignition in it in the spring, but he wants to drive it once this year. He has been waiting a month for us to have time to get out there and of course right away the carburetor is leaking everywhere and every moving part was grinding from all the sand.
