I'm in the final stages of installation of dual 40 IDF carbs and something with the air filter assembly doesn't look right. After I put on the gasket and air filter assembly, there is space between the gasket edge and the top of the carb. The mating surfaces of the gasket appears to be fine, but I am concerned that when I put the air filter assembly on, I'll be screwing on the 4 nuts with no supporting surface below.
I purchased these carbs used and I can see that the air filter plate was warped a little due to the previous owner overtightening one screw. Is this the way the air filter assembly is supposed to work? Also, I'm missing the 4 nuts for the air filter assembly, are you guys using double nuts on each post or a lock washer and nut to ensure the nuts don't come off and into the intake. |
