carb removal question on 87 samurai.
« on: February 14, 2010, 03:33:47 PM »
I'm lookin at the carburetor on my samurai, and I have no idea how to remove it without pulling a lot of motor parts out in the process.   

I could use a little advice on that.       other than that, I'm pretty impressed with this little truck.  freakin thing looks like a military vehicle, but more comfortable.

Its pretty simple, actually.  The hardest part for me was the accelerator cable. 

As I recall, you need to remove the two water lines from the rear, there are i believe 5 electrical harness connectors to take apart, the accelerator cable and a few vacuum lines.  And, of course the fuel line.  Then just take the 4 nuts off at the bottom of the carb and it comes right off.  I believe they are 12mm nuts.

Thanks.    I didnt want to just tear into it with no clue how the devil to get it off.    I hate working on a vehicle and breaking more than I fix.
