Carburetor - ROCHESTER 2SE & E2SE 2-Bbl: Overhaul: Reassembly

Use new gaskets and seals. Make sure new gaskets fit correctly and all holes are punched through and properly located. To reassemble carburetor, reverse disassembly procedure, noting the following:

  1. Install fuel inlet needle pull clip over edge of flat on float arm facing float. DO NOT  hook clip in holes in float arm.
  2. After throttle body is installed on float bowl, make sure secondary lockout tang is in correct position to engage secondary lockout lever.
  3. Install new accelerator pump discharge check ball, spring and plastic retainer. Insert end of retainer in spring and place in position in float bowl. Lightly tap retainer into position until it is flush in float bowl.
  4. Make sure holes in fuel filter face toward fuel inlet fitting when filter is installed. This will ensure that check valve end of filter is installed properly.
  5. Some linkage retaining clips are dished. Make sure portion of clip that bends outward is toward end of rod. Make sure clip makes full contact with rod.
  6. Place fast idle screw on high step of fast idle cam. Install choke coil cover, aligning notch in cover with raised boss on housing cover flange. If choke cover and coil assembly was removed from housing, a service rivet kit must be used to restore tamper-resistant feature.
  7. On E2SE models, be sure coil pick-up lever is located inside choke coil tang. On electric chokes, the ground contact is provided by a metal plate at rear of choke cover assembly. DO NOT  install a choke cover gasket between electric choke assembly and choke housing.
  8. Install air horn screws, noting location and type of screw for correct installation. Tighten all screws evenly, securely and in sequence. See Fig 1.
  9. On E2SE models, install mixture control solenoid seal on solenoid stem. Using a 3/16" socket and hammer, lightly tap retainer in place on stem. Leave a slight clearance between retainer and seal. Apply silicone grease to seal before installation of solenoid.
