An $86 Carburetor on a Ford Straight 6 

Thanks for the video. I appreciate the hours it must have taken to make and edit. By the way you have a great voice for radio 👍🏻

Thanks for doing this. Just got an F-250 with the 4.9L Straight 6 and similar issues.

I've purchased a couple eBay Chinese carbs for various ATV projects, just as a word of caution I've always taken them apart and inspected the passages for metal shavings and sure enough there's been left over chips from the manufacturing process. Everything was fine after a good cleaning, just wanted to let people know if they ever have issues with tuning a Chinese carb is to check for metal debris. Thanks for the video!

I bought one. Works OK, wasn’t great out of the box but it did run and was an improvement over the carb that came off. It was A LOT lighter than the carb that came off. I need to work on tuning mine and maybe that’s my issue

Bought it, they work fine.

Well, how is it? Have you got it dialed in?

Thanks!

Hey I got this carb and was wondering what the thread size for the gas line was?

Looks like the carb I got for my 300. Mine was feed back. But that didn't work anyway. Just need to trick the timing advance. It was digital now its, well yeah no

We put an eBay version on my uncles falcon and it’s been running for 6 years now. Just need to adjust it when the season changes. Swapping to V8 soon, it was originally a 289 car but someone stole that and put a 200 in it.

I've been debating on getting a new carb for my 200 i6, but what's making me hesitant on doing so is they're all chinesium. These carburetors for American made cars should made in America, not china.

Excellent no-nonsense, no frills review. Thank you for taking the time and energy to do a comprehensive and objective review. Great assessment and display of rust "somewhere" going into the carb/engine. Definitely makes me think twice about the carb I am trying to find for my '66 Mustang 6-Cyliner!

Thanks Tony for showing what you got going on with your Maverick. On my 65 Mustang I put a new gas tank in . Hopefully my carburetor is OK or I will buy a new or rebuilt one also. Do they make gas tanks for Mavericks I wonder. 😁👍

I bought one and installed it on my 1980 Ford F-100 with a 4.9 inline six cylinder and it works great! Only adjustment I had to make was the hot idle as it was a little low for my truck, idle mixture was spot on!

I´m in the marked of getting one, which brand is it? Do you have a link? Regards...

Thanks for the information any updates on this carburetor?

How’s it working a year later?

around 2020, I decided to delete the feedback system in my truck because it really was not running well at all, so I installed a vacuum distributor and in order to do that I had to replace the carb too. I went with the amazon special carburetor like you have, and I did add a manual choke to it just because I wanted one in there. so after I had everything snapped into place, and I tuned the carburetor I was actually impressed with a cheap carburetor like that one. I might try to go the next level and install a 2 or 4 bbl, or maybe find a manifold that you can mount two single bbl carbs onto, but right now this carb is serving me well.

carburettor pump was loose its on the bottom of the carburettor. look out. one went straight on the 1970 vw the 1965 au.falcon needs a clever handy man for kick back, throttle and adaptor

A couple months ago I got an eBay $79 Carter YFA carb. I just have manual choke and not electric. Couple of months in and it seems to be doing fine. I took put a second filter. Pick up a spare filter; it's just two screws and a quick swap. That trip should clean out your tank. Have a great time. Don't forget the mix tape

I need this carb for my 68 f100 300i6 but need a manual choke set up, hopefully I can figure that out.

Hey I got this carb and was wondering how adjusted the air mixture the right way

I want to modify one of these to fit a 1600 4AFE out of a corolla..

I just discovered your channel, such a nice christmas present, I'll be watching your videos. Your presentation is very good. I'm a 70 year old man who grew up with these early mustangs and mavericks. My parents in the 1960', 70's drove econolines and mavericks with six cylinders. My mother loved her Maverick, 6 cylinder , auto, P/S. They always started in below zero weather in central Minnesota, just had to keep the batteries fresh, those mechanical voltage regulators were tempermental. So, when I was in the Navy in the seventies I drove Mustang, 1966 2+2 fast back with 200 six and top loader four speed with hurst shifter all over the country, never had a problem. Today I drive a 1977 f150 300 six with c4 trans, P/S. Great cars and trucks back then, I live in the midwest in a small town, not leaving, they still sell regular gas here for my old trusty-truck.

Just got the same car to work on. Roommate likes to see me think

Do you have a link for it?

i have a 86 f150 st 6 with a clapped out carb… what should i get for stock replacement?

I know I'm having trouble with the one I got for my pickup.

Hey Tony , New to your channel... I am about to embark on swaping out my Fuel Injection System ( F150 / 300 ) to a Carburetor System ...😲🤔 Ran across your video and that Carb & Engine turned out nice and smooth...👍👌 How is the driveability...?
