Restored Yf

Just got the carb back from J&J Carb from Fullerton, CA. Here is a before and after. One interesting point is that some linkage pieces were the yellowish color and I doubt it was ever replated before, yet was returned shinny metal. Going to call them about it next week.

 

Carb looks great. It is gonna make your f-head sing.

 

Still gotta get distributor rebuilt and a Pertronix in it. Baby steps of the budget.

 

I called and talked to them about the colors. He said they actually look this stuff up in a book to verify what gets plated what and yes the manual did say the linkage and throttle brackets should be plated shinny and polished. They did forget to replace the Torx screws with slotted ones so they said send it back to replace them with correct style and gasket and then retest to make sure no leaks, etc.
