    Remove air cleaner.
    Disconnect fuel line
    Disconnect throttle linkage.
    Disconnect vaccum hoses, if any.

    Place new carb.

    Installation is reverse order of removal.

    It is really one of the simpler things to do. Just take your time.

    See above.

    give it a shot. If you run into problems or have questions, post them here, someone will help... but you probably won't need it. :)

    Make sure to use a new gasket. Don't use any gasket sealer.
