Hi all Looking for some specific carb- kit info-- Carter BBD 8198S --- when engine has been run and is hot, and then parked, fuel begins to percolate and then we get a drip (once every 3-5 seconds) of fuel from the main throttle plate rod.....it comes out, runs along the spring and then drips.... Once the engine cools down it stops. Carb was a new reman in package, still shrink wrapped rebuild from the 80s, and has run good, even now.....was installed maybe a year ago. Upper body gaskets are looking soaked though. Some good folks on the F body forum say its likely the float out of whack or dirt in the needle seat or maybe a hard seat. And that makes sense.....the carb, though "newly redone" was sitting for who knows how long. SO I need a rebuild kit. On rock auto they list a parts kit for the 80 Volare 2 bbl, but specify : Fits2BBL; w/ Carter Carb.; w/ Mexico Emissions; BBD; 8314-8315 Or2BBL; w/ Carter Carb.; BBD; 8250, 8286-8287; w/ Canada or Export Emissions So the query for all the slant 6 carb gurus here.....is this kit gonna work fine? Or keep looking? Looking here http://www.carburetion.com/SiteCarbNumb ... and=Carter, it seems like they are the same kits and floats....but......want to be sure Thanks all! |

Thanks! From what I can figure, looks like the kit we bought covers multiple years, including our 8198S.
