Guest flathead_jr Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I am installing a 4GC carburetor on a flathead Ford engine but I need a couple idle mixture screws to complete my build. The carburetor has a small square base, similar to a Holley series 4000 carburetor. It had a second plate underneath that had pins to center it but I removed the plate and linkage. I'd post photos but I can't do it through my mobile. If anyone can help me let me know. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Yaros Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Daytona Parts Co. should have what you need: http://www.daytonaparts.comHowever, it and any other supplier may need to know the carb number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbking Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Idle mixture screws are included in better carburetor rebuilding kits; but as Dave mentioned in the post above, you need the carburetor tag number.Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest flathead_jr Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I have resolved my problem with no idle screws but I'd like to find a carburetor number for my carb. I was told it came off of a 54 Olds, but may be earlier 52 or 53. The fuel in let port is in the rear, and it had a separate plate under it with linkage attached to it as well. Again it also has the small square base. If anyone has this style of carburetor and could provide a photo and carb number I'd be grateful. Thanks. .....

junkyardjeff Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I have found Carter 4 bbls on a couple early 50s Olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
