Re: Trying to separate carburetor halves held together by metal hanger.

The detailed diagram and explanation were much appreciate, and exactly described the scenario. I managed with thorough use of carb cleaner and silicon spray lubricant to un-stick the piston and remove the top half of the carb.

Trying to separate carburetor halves held together by metal hanger.

I'm currently in the process of attempting to revive a (I believe) 1956 Packard Patrician.

I have the carburetor mostly disassembled, and I'm to the part where the top should lift off the bottom, revealing the float chambers and floats dangling from the top, but while loose, the halves are held together by a little "hanger" thing, which had some sort of needle valves hanging on it. I pried carefully at the offending bit, and it stubbornly refused to yield.

How can I take out the metal hanger bit and remove the top half of the carburetor from the bottom half?
