Im looking for information on this carburetor. Its out of a stock 1956 272 Y block Chasis Cab F-250. The gas tank and lines have been cleaned and/or replaced to the fuel pump. I have installed a fuel filter in the flex line between the fuel pump and the had line that exits the frame rail. The truck has not been run for a long time. The gas tank was coated in a green slime and the pickup tube was closed with a tar like substance. I also noticed the huge throttle return spring which seems a little overkill. I just want to get the truck running, then go from there. Can someone tell me if this is an easy carburetor to rebuild? Im also wondering if I should remove the fuel pump and try to clean it up before I try and start it. The engine was running good before the truck got parked. It turns over good now. http://forums.y-blocksforever.com/Uploads/Images/d147e6d5-9fd4-40ce-bc17-b381.JPGhttp://forums.y-blocksforever.com/Uploads/Images/549c62f5-eea4-4931-bc76-d137.JPG
