Rebuild Complete!

As you can tell by now, things take me a little longer than most folks as I tend to take my own pace with things (mostly due to a myriad of other projects)... Nonetheless, I finally finished the rebuild of Cornelia's carburetor yesterday, and today I took some time out and put a page together documenting the rebuild for you. The page will also show one of the hang-ups that took me some time, so hopefully you won't lose time like I did :-)
Between my notes, the manual and the pages from the International Harvester Truck Service Manual, you have everything you need to tear down and rebuild a Carter Model YF 735A carburetor. I can also highly recommend a source for a rebuild kit. I only wish I could confirm a proper rebuild by popping it on the manifold and firing up the truck, but unfortunately we're still quite a way from that day... So, we move on to the next step, which will be the fuel pump. Look for posts and information on that subject soon!
In the meantime, you can read up on the rebuild by going to the Truck Facts section, then clicking on "Rebuild the Carter YF Carburetor". I hope it helps!
