: My Zenith 1 carb on my 1930 Coupe has never been satisfactory. This is a rebuilt engine, not yet broken in. I'm pretty sure the timing is correct. It runs rich. And occasionally the float valve gets stuck, causing the thing to flood and pour out gasoline through the air intake port.I've purchased rebuild kits and replaced some of the jets, and changed the float valve many times. I've played with shims under the float valve, to lower the float level. The thing still is not working right. I'm getting tired of this. I want to drive this spring!
: Can anyone suggest an outfit or individual who is known to be proficient at rebuilding Zenith carbs? I'm ready to pay for someone's help.
I would call Lloyd Kerr, 4804 Ridgeview, Parker,TX 75002 @(972)422-9520. Lloyd rebuilds carbs for Bratton's Model A Parts.
