1bbl Carburetor for 300ci I6
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

Common problems include:
1) it's a carburetor
2) because of the design of the intake manifold (log), it's impossible to get the correct mixture to all the cylinders; 3&4 will always be richer, and 1&6 will always be leaner
3) having only 2 mounting studs, the gasket compresses on the sides, allowing vacuum leaks at the base
4) the accelerator pump is known to rupture (especially when exposed to backfires, caused by vacuum leaks at the base) causing the carb to constantly leak fuel into the intake, which usually washes the rings out of the engine
5) the electronic system on the feedback version has MANY problems

The "Idle Mis Adjusting Screw" at the bottom of the R panel is actually "...Mix...".
