Oog. I did buy a Autoline rebuilt from Rock Auto.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Hope it works out okeh for you.

The threads in one of my BBS carbs are stripped by the brass inlet assembly. At one time, parts stores had a replacement, which had a slightly larger diameter and would self-tap into the body. Anyone know where to get one? |

The repair fitting you have in mind was never available for the BBS -- it was available for the Rochester Thermoquad. Time to find another carburetor body to build up. |

Thanks, Dan. I did buy a Autoline rebuilt from Rock Auto. Figured I could rebuild it if necessary. (Knowing the bad reputation of store rebuilts.) The problem there is that they use the same stock number for several years. First one I got was too early--no PCV connection (and I already had one of those). Called Rock and they emailed a free return label to me. Replacement was a 1964--Just what I needed. Surprise, it ran fine right from the start. Both were quite clean with many new external parts. |
