Title: Autolite 2V carburetor rebuild
Post by: priceless on April 30, 2016, 12:35:16 PM: Does anyone know a good carburetor rebuilder for the Autolite 2V carburetor, C9ZF-B with bowl vent? See photo. Any help appreciated,
Rich

UPDATE: Found Mike's Carburetors. Wealth of information and Parts.

Agree, these are super easy to rebuild. Hardest part is cleaning.
