Full disclosure...I copied Calvin on his plumbing. So I too will thank him and admire the plumbing in the beautiful yellow Willys.
That is my fuel filter. �It's a glass body with replaceable inserts. �I picked it up at Autozone. �I actually kind of like it.
This photo is a bit old. �I have replaced the PCV valve with the right one. �
Tom, I do run a bit rich with the Solex. �I still have to try a few things, but when I first got this, and after reading about the Solex, I installed a fuel regulator and dialed it back to 1-2psi. �It started to beg for fuel, so I turned up the dial to its max (5) and the begging went away. �Odd. �I tried multiple settings, but could never get it to work. �The regulator just choked off the Solex. �I took off the regulator and promised I would have that fight, another day.
Since then, I went back to a mechanical pump, �(I had an electric on it when I tried the regulator) and thought about reinstalling the regulator and messing with the air/fuel screw.
I must also admit, I was going to emplore you to help me with it, if I catch you at the Fall Colors Tour this year. �
I also have the original Carter sitting in a pile to rebuild. �I eventually want to see which carb the Willys prefers. �
This is all a lot of 'to dos' and at the height of Summer Willys Driving Season, I figured this is a good winter project. �This, and my horrible leak out the front of my transmission.
