Well I put in a new one when I rebuilt it, both the round piece and the square piece...See this page for pictures of what I'm talking about.

What all is there to tune on a carb. In my dream last night I had something come to me. I think the mixture screw is out way to far. But, it may not be. There is that, the idle speed screw, and what else?

review this info and pics...might help out..

Don't the stock I6's have a big fuel filter that looks like a small oil filter? Geez it has been 20 years since I wrestled with one. I remember it being blue in color and in front of the steering box. I might be confused, usually am.
on my I6 the fuel filter is on the fuel pump, it screws off like an oil filter then the filter is underneath. just be careful, as we know, those are normally filled with gas! but the the old filter pops out and an new filter is about $6 at autozone.

You need to send that carb to Pony carbs or get one from them. Here is what they have to say about that POS.
>>>The 1100 is one of our specialty products. The day the carburetors were manufactured they had engineering problems, and in-driveability, those problems were hesitations and flat spots on acceleration, a general lack of power, and hard starting when hot. We correct all of those problems during the restoration by re-engineering the interior specifications of the carburetor. <<<

Hahaha, yea, it sure is a POS, but I'm stuck with it for now. And I need a driveable vehcile pretty quick too

I can see Pony carbs charging me a ton for that. I've seen their prices on the ones they sell and WOW... I might just get a Carter YF or go with another alternative.

I have a friend who bought his from Autozone. He said, the day you get it, make sure it works on your car, then rebuild it, because they are not well put together.
