Re: [Classic Mustang] 2100 2BBL Carburetor Question ???

Not sure if it is the same carb or not, but I have 2 spare 2 barrel carbs off my 69 351W engine if anyone needs one cheap.    Before you open your carb kit, compare the part number to the tag that is on your carb to make sure it is the right one.  The carb kit should contain general instructions and diagrams on the rebuild of the carbs.  Look at the parts in the kit, so you know which ones get replaced.  All others need to be cleaned.  when you back out the two adjustment screws for mixture, be sure to count the number of turns "out" so that you will reinstall them to the same setting initially.   Follow the diagrams as you take it apart, and place parts on a towel nearby to keep them in the order of disassembly.  After thoroughly cleaning the carb, then start the reassembly step-by-step. Be sure not to over-tighten any of the screws. Most production rebuild shops have a flow meter to make the final adjustment, but you can do it once you get it back on the car. --- On Sat, 12/27/08, John <gmrs675@yahoo.com> wrote: From: John <gmrs675@yahoo.com> Subject: [Classic Mustang] 2100 2BBL Carburetor Question ??? To: classicmustang@yahoogroups.com Date: Saturday, December 27, 2008, 2:03 AM I have a 2100 2bbl. carburetor stamped 1.14 from my 1968 mustang coupe, 289 engine, automatic C4, single exhaust. The carburetor needs a rebuild and I have the kit for it. This will be my first experience with this. Upon my research, I found venturi numbers of: 1.08, 1.14, 1.21, 1.23, 1.33 there might be others. I am thinking of getting another 2100 carburetor to "experiment on" and get the feel of rebuilding before actually working on my carburetor. I am sure that these venturi numbers mean something, but I don't know what they are. If I use another number besides my 1.14, will it make a difference on performance to my 289 engine ? I am really a "newbe" to this, so pardon my question if this sounds silly.... John 68 Mustang
