My Super A has a slow fuel drip from the bottom of the carb. I have the sediment bowl valve turned off and it still drips (slowly) so I think the valve in the sediment bowl may also be to blame.
First things first though - which barb is this? Is it a Zenith 161?
This is my fuel system layout. It looks like someone added an in-line filter (previous owner). Not sure why.
Can the sediment bowl be serviced to restore its ability to fully stop fuel flow, or should I just buy and install a new assembly? The local TSC sells something that looks more cheaply made but they say is a drop-in replacement.
I'm assuming the carb itself can just be rebuilt once I know the right model and order a rebuild kit - true?
Finally, does anyone know what these holes were for?
The PO had used them to install a heavy angle bracket for a pull chain, which seemed dubious to me, so I removed it. Curious what it was for. I might use it for a SMV sign bracket or something like that.
