1966 Ford Carb

[Bob Shafto]

Can anyone tell me what the original 2 bbl carburetor on my 1966 Galaxie 500 390 motor was. It has no tag or other identifying information.  Make and tag number needed.  And maybe too the correct float setting?

 

Thanks

Here is a link to the different Ford carburetors used on the 1965 models.

It comes from the 1965 Shop Manual. The float adjustment is also in the Shop Manual. The float level adjustment should be in one of the next few pages of the manual.

 

There were some differences between the 1965 and 1966 carb models, but the 1965 shop manual should help you get yours running. At the top of the page there is a link to take you back to the home of the fuel section.

 

I would look for a 1966 Shop Manual if the online 1965 Manual doesn't work for you.
