Marvel-Schebler rebuild link

Bill Crowell · Jun 9, 2016

I'm sorry, boys, but I lost the URL to your really good article on rebuilding and cleaning out all the screens and passages in the Marvel-Schebler, and I couldn't figure out how to search for the article. Could you please point me to it? Thank you very kindly.

Thank you very much, GB. Do you mind if I ask you a question? If you're getting good fuel flow into the carburetor but the fuel bowl fills only slowly, with poor flow from the bottom fuel bowl drain, which passage and/or screen would you suspect? I have tried to clean all the obvious places but it is still doing it. Or maybe the float needle is sticking in its seat? It doesn't seem to want to drop very well when I lower the float.

I would suspect a plugged 'elbow filter, or partially stuck float needle...........(closed position)
Also check to make sure the floats, are not binding on the sides of the fuel bowl anywhere!!!
This is if, as you say,.....there is GOOD FLOW from the tank to the carb.!!!???

Here's a [b:417e1b3fa6]link[/b:417e1b3fa6] for ya.
Given the description I would agree with Gary's assessment.
IF your carb sat disconnected for a while, you might even check
for mud dauber's and spider's nests. I cleaned them out of the
hole where the elbow screws in just last week.
