Carburetor and Fuel System
The carburetor is of the down draft type,
incorporating an accelerating pump and a
delayed deceleration device.
There are only two adjustments on this
carburetor. The speed of the engine when
running idle may be adjusted by setting the
stop screw (A). To obtain a smooth idling,
mixture, adjust idling screw (B). Turn this
screw all the way in and then back out one
full turn. Then turn screw in (to the right)
slowly until engine idles evenly.
The heat control valve or dampener in the
manifold should be set as follows
Summer Operation
The pointer should be set straight up
except in very hot climates, when it should
point to the right, or front of the engine.
Engine Tuning
Do not attempt to adjust the carburetor alone. Perform all of the follow¬ing
operations in the order given:
1. Clean spark plugs and adjust gaps to .025".
2. Clean distributor breaker points and adjust to .020" maximum open ing
as described under Ignition System. (Page 17.)

Winter Operation
The pointer should be set to the left or rear of the engine.
The carburetor air cleaner is mounted on top of the carburetor and should be
cleaned and re-oiled every 2,000 miles: This should be done by immersing the
entire cleaner in gasoline, shaking vigorously and, after draining, dip in S.A.E.
50 engine oil. Drain excess oil before replacing.
The fuel pump is driven by a cam on the camshaft. The fuel delivery is
controlled by the carburetor float and valve. The cap screw holding the cover
in place should be removed, permitting the removal of the cover and filter
screen for cleaning every 2,000 miles. At the same time the drain plug, located
just below the pump outlet, should be removed and the sediment chamber
cleaned. This should be done, particularly in cold weather, to remove any water
which may have accumulated.
