hi ive bought a edelbrock quick silver carb ,second hand but as new condition ,i didnt get any instructions can any body tell me how to adjust it ,i know it doesnt have any jets ,just the pumper ,throttle needle and mixture screw ,
what i need to know is
how and which way would you turn the mixture screw to richen the mixture
which way do you turn the **** on top of the carb to richen the fuel flow
and how would i set the pumper ,
could you tell me were i could get some new needels for it ,or could they be filed as they are flat sided and taperd
thank you

 

0-1/3 throttle is adjusted by the needle height, set this by opening the throttle wide open and holding it, then push down on the red **** on the top of the carb while turning it. It'll fit into a groove, and then you can feel it click every quarter turn. Turn it clockwise to richen it, and counter-clockwise to lean it out. (obviously you want to do this when the engine is turned off)

1/3 throttle and up is adjusted by swapping out the needle with a different size.

I bet if you contact edelbrock they will send you a manual, or at least link you to a .pdf version that you can download. Their customer service team is one of the best out there.

 

o.k great thank you
