Hubert_25-25 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) You may want to consider going thru the carburetor yourself. There is a procedure in this link. This will walk you thru the steps. The float may not be able to take the pressure from your fuel pump. What is the hose clamp around the float bowl for?

raydurr Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 You may need to properly identify your carburetor before ordering any parts. Your car does not have a 1928 engine as it has a mechanical fuel pump. The mounting pattern of the fuel pump makes me think the engine is a 1930. Tony Bult 262-275-6403 can rebuild , test and adjust your carburetor. He is great on Buicks of this era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert_25-25 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Cory, 10-105 body used on 1926/27/28 Master, 1929 Master, 1930 series 50-60. What number do you have on the side of the brass float bowl. This may be on the back side. Probably best to just remove the carburetor and heat riser. They need to come off anyway.
