    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had a set of rebuild instructions for a Carter YS carb. I just bought a rebuild kit from Midwest Military and thought it would come with step by step instructions. Unfortunately, it only had an exploded diagram. I've never rebuilt a carb before but was told it isn't too hard, especially these old carter singles. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. My Military manual doesn't cover the rebuild process, only R&R of the whole carb assy. Thanks!

    Thanks! Your info really helps. I think the YF and YS are very similiar and hopefully the process is the same. If anyone else has any input, I'd appreciate it. I'll be posting some pics of my progress soon!

    Step 1. Remove and sell on ebay
    2. Purchase Solex
    3. Install Solex
    4. Adjust solex after engine warms up
    5. Drink beer while patting self on back for solving all the world's carb problems
    I did hear you don't want to rebuild, it with the generic kit, you need a jeep specific kit. I tried. See step one.
