69 Imperial Carb Replacement



Thanks Mark & others who replied. I found a universal fuel filter at Autozone that has 3 sizes of changeable fittings on both ends, so this would work. I may try tightening the clamp securely first to see how that goes. I'll do that at the one coming out of the fuel pump. I figure with the low pressure on these, there shouldn't be any problem. The filter I bought is glass & made in Taiwan, so that may be my last resort.

John,
I've got this carb on both of my cars. And, on the '68, I did exactly that. Been there for a couple of years now. Don't think you'll have any problems.

Hi folks, I'm about to replace the carb on my 69 with a Carter 9636 & am wondering how anyone that has already done this overcame the problem of having a 5/16 fuel line & a 3/8 fitting on the carb? The instructions say you need to use a hose & not to try to remove the carb fitting to connect the existing metal fuel line, but offers no real advice on how to accomplish this. My first thought was just to use the 3/8 hose & tighten the clamp a little tighter at the fuel pump, but am having 2nd thoughts on that. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
John
