Adjusting a 53 Packard Carburator
Posted by Chaireasy3 On 2012/4/30 22:34:32
Hello guys.....
Is there a simple way to adjust a carburator after its been rebuilt? Im going crazy with it. It was rebuilt due to the fact that at acceleration it was very sluggish. Right after it was rebuilt, it worked great and the car was great at acceleration. But now it seems that it dies at a stop light or it idles really high. Anyone know what it might be??
I finally have it lookin great on the outside and the engine is now giving me issues. It used to run so smooth and very quiet...just a thing of beauty. It is the original engine and carburator. Any ideas???

PS What do you guys think of the cross bar hubcaps? I have the original dog bowls but I cant find the rims for them. I bought some packard rims but they had clips instead of the three lips it needs for the dog dish hubcaps i have.
Comments are very welcome....always wanting fresh ideas for this car.
Thanks guys.
