Doe anyone recall where I might find how to do the adjustment? This is the carburetor made by Detroit Lubricator, but badged Packard on the float chamber cover. Thanks, Posted on: 7/3 12:28

There is a copy of this very useful handbook for sale on ebay now, search on "1929 Packard owners Manual" Attach file:   img-220703085001-001.jpg (444.50 KB) Posted on: 7/3 17:35
