Hello all, I have a Marvel Shebler carburetor on my Ford NAA. I bought the kit to rebuild it. Everything went well except when I got down to the new seals that are expected to be used around the throttle and choke shafts. I can't seem to make the felt one (it is a washer like seal made of white felt) or the rubber one fit properly. They go over the shafts respectively, but do not fit down in the opening. I put the throttle shaft back in place with the rubber seal compressed between the body of the carb and the lever portion (part that connects to the linkage)and it seems to seal against the body okay. I do not think it was intended to be installed that way, though. When it is put into the hole without the shaft it becomes so distorted that it does not seem like a correct fit. The felt washer will fit in the opening for the choke shaft, but is so compressed that the shaft will not pass through it. I must be missing the right technique. By the way, this was my first carb rebuild. The carb cleaned up nicely in the parts cleaner. I then sprayed the body out good with Chemtool B12 followed by some brake cleaner. Then compressed air dried everything out nicely. Installing the new parts was pretty straight foreward except for those darn seals. Any help from any of you would be appreciated. Best regards, Tim, Ohio

A man and his wife came to the dealer and looked me over real good. After many talks with the salesman a deal was struck and I, along with a M2 plow, c
