carb rebuild diagram

is there anyone that nows of a better diagram for rebuilding the 2g? I am having trouble remembering where the heck some of this stuff goes? I tore it down the other night, and now i am stuck on a few things? So, does anyone know of a better diagram/pics for the 2g rebuild process other tha the crappy diagram that came with the kit? TIA

 

Factory service manual, this link will also help alot.

Its probably better than the factory manual.

 

In the future use a digital camera and take lots of pics as your taking stuff apart. Lay everything out on a clean bench or table in the exact order and orientation you took it off. Of course you'll still want to have a manual but this way works well until you are comfortable with whatever your working on. After that you can just throw everything in a box or bag and it won't matter cause you've done it so many times.R) R) Just some food for thought.

 

thanks guys, jason i usually do the camera thing, but my battery needed to be charged, and i said screw it and started taking it apart. thanks for the links...i just need to be sure on the pump and float assys.

 

Well of course, that's the way it always goes with Murphy's Law. Camera doesn't work and when you go to put it back together you get the 'Oh Crap' feeling.R) Good luck with getting done.

 

I just rebuilt mine on Friday and loaded my pics into the Photo Archive.

There is also a good diagram there:

ok, here i smy question, since the rebuild kit did not come with a float, i am assuming i can just use the new needle, and jet thingy with the old float assy, and i wont have to readjust anything correct?? Also in the following pics, do i have the spring and pump assy correct? and if i do, how does the big spring go in the hole, just drop it in or is it supposed to "click" in place. then where does the pump go? i know there is supposed to be a cotter pin on the brass end of the pump, but were does that end of the pump go after that? if im not making any sense please accept my apology and i will try to do better . The carb is all cleaned up and ready to go, i just want to button this up :

 

ok i think i got it, forgot all about that linkage that needs to go through the pump assy...man i need another beer, or maybe thats the problem.....i will post pics and you guys can tell me if i am all dicked up or not

 

one othe thing, did you guys have a bunch of gaskets and stuff left over that you didnt use? i have a bunch of stuff that i cant find a place for...i know this stuff didnt come out of it when i pulled it apart

 

Yeah you'll have stuff left over. The kits are somewhat universal in that they can be used for a few different applications. And yes you can reuse your float if you don't have another.

 

so does this look right to you all???

 

looks like the float is upside down ?
the round groove in the float looks like it should be facing the post
is the float hanging out over the edge of the top ?

 

ya know i was thinking the same thing when i was just lookign again at that pic, but no it is not hanging over the edge, i think i am gonna turn it around though cause i am pretty sure thats how it looks like it should go

 

I don't know if it can be ?????
the tab that the needle seat rides on/pushes against will pretty much dictate the direction

 

the needle and everything rides real smooth, and the float moves up and down just fine, i just dont know now.....i guess i can turn it around and see, but looking at it know i wonder if the float will work right with it the other way?????

 

:iagree:

Flip it over and take another pic. It looks backwards.

 

Turn it around, the indent is there for a reason and the way it it in the npic makes no sense. that indent should let the float work around the silver colored post thingy. (yeah I know how that sounded but turn it the other way.)

 

This pic shows how my float was oriented. It looks like the reverse of yours
