[AT] Ford 1841 fuel problem

[Dean VP]

Lew,

Check this out regarding an earlier Ford Updraft Carburetor.  I'm suspecting one of the
idle passages is plugged:

No; wish I did.  It's a simple marvel scheiber updraft; similar to the one on the old 8n
Fords but bigger.  Maybe a diagram will come with the kit?

Lew,

I'm not familiar with this specific carburetor but I would expect the jets to be clean.
What is suspect IMHO is all the (hidden) passages that are hard to get to behind plugs
etc.  Do you have a exploded diagram of all the passages in the carburetor?
