Default Re: Seafoam

Back to the question of plugged passages in a Weber carb on an A.

My '31 A with the Weber kit had not been run in many months and did not wanna run well until I removed the idle jets from both side of the upper carb body. They are easily removed.

The idle jets were plugged with "gummy fuel gel" and I used a very fine sewing needle to pierce the opening in the jets.

Just need to be careful not to enlarge the jet orifice, just remove residual fuel gel crud from the jet. I had ethanol free in the tank also.
