Carburetor - MOTORCRAFT 2150 2-Bbl: Overhaul: Reassembly

Use new gaskets and seals. Make sure that new gaskets fit correctly and that all holes and slots are punched through and are correctly located. Replace Elastomer valve if removed from main body. To reassemble carburetor, reverse disassembly procedure and note the following:

  1. When installing Elastomer valve (if it was removed), lubricate tip of new valve, and insert tip into center hole of accelerator pump cavity. Insert needle nose pliers in fuel bowl, and pull valve in, until it is fully seated. Cut off excess valve tip at retaining shoulder, and remove tip from fuel bowl.
  2. When installing idle mixture needles and springs, turn screws in with fingers until lightly seated. Back screws off seated position 1-1/2 turns for an initial adjustment. DO NOT  install idle screw limiter caps, until final adjustments have been made.
  3. If choke coil cover was removed, reinstall using 3 break-away screws. Position gasket, choke cap and retainer. Mount with break-away screws.
