Does anyone know if/where there is a carb rebuild kit available for a '41 Super Eight? My carb is pouring gas all over the exhaust manifold but I don't want to tear it down without the parts necessary to put it all back together

I wonder if you just have a stuck needle valve? You might just need to take apart and clean. Ernie in Arizona

If you want a kit before checking the float, Kanter lists some kits as availablekanter.com/p-35856-packard-1940-1950-parts.html#9

Daytona Parts is a vendor who has kits and also offers a rebuild service several Packard owners have used.daytonaparts.com/carburetor-kits-and-parts.html
