John S's Journal

Came home from a camping trip and was happy to see that my Joe Curto rebuilt carbs made it safely and we’re waiting for me in the garage. Felt a bit like Christmas opening up the big box and then the separately boxed carburetors. Extremely well-packed in sturdy boxes with lots of packing material .

So today, I removed my stand-in HS4’s that were from my ‘70 roadster in preparation to install the freshly rebuilt ones original to the GT. The fact that everything was very clean made the process an easy deal since they’ve only been in use on the GT for a a couple months and hasn’t accumulated many miles due to an extremely wet weather pattern this Spring. The new ones are on now and plumbed up but a family birthday celebration this evening means the finishing touches will have to wait until tomorrow.
