J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
Just got my carburetor back, put it on and the car runs as good as the carb. looks. Great job he does, and one week turnaround for $165.00 rebuilt! Lucky we have vendors for these old birds.

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
And I am remiss in not noting J.R. previously! He restored two carbs for me, both were returned in as-new condition, and operated perfectly out-of-the-box. We are, indeed, blessed to have him to rescue us!

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
I have a B1 carburettor that needs attention. Does he do those? If so, contact details?

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
I don't know what a B1 carb is, but here is his website, e-mail and phone number. He was an easy friendly guy to chat with on the phone and answered e-mail fast. Click the the center link below it takes you right to his site and his e-mail!

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
I just received a reply from Mr Bullock. It's a no go - he doesn't work on B carbs.

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
I hadn't seen it either. Thanks Mike. I have saved it for later reference.

Re: J.R. Bullock Did Another Fine Job
Folks, you can't properly rebuild a "B" carburetor without removing the passage plugs and cleaning the hidden passages. The one of the biggest concerns is the passage under the GAV nettle where rust accumulates. The other buried passage is in the idle circuit. When I rebuild "B" carburetors, I drill out the passage plugs, clean out the passages and replace the plugs with set screws sealed with Loctite 592 thread sealer. This sealer remains pliable and is unaffected by gasoline and ethanol.
