Anyone ever rebuilt one of these carbs? Or know where the procedure is located?
I have the rebuild kit, but some guidance would be most helpful.
Thanks a lot.
ps. I drove by my truck today, It was covered in snow... :(
Gas tank
Yeah, Karl,
I forgot that I had already removed the gas tank before taking those pics.
It seems to be in good shape, just needs cleaning and removing a few dents..
My biggest problem might be the tailgate which looks really bad, but we might try to repair it.
Its not currenly...
By the way, I'm tring to decide if the addon turn signals were a military modification or if somebody put them there.
Either way, I'm not sure if I like them or not, but it will be more legal to drive with them on.
Any opinions let me know.
Thanks
Yeah, It sat for about four years in a junkyard, so its been a while.
Somebody bolted some wire mesh in the hole where the winch was and put a wierd spotlight there. Oh well, just more to fix.
Also, I forgot to mention, I recieved the new unit a while ago, and it is the same size as my old one.
Not sure that I know why that is, but Im ok with it.
I havent tried it yet because the tank is off the truck and I havent been near the truck in a few weeks. But hopefully soon.
Thanks...
Thanks so much guys.
Once again I am amazed at how knowledgeable and helpful you all are.
I do have the orginal for a size reference, so for the $25 I am going to try to make it work.
Again, thanks so much.
unit on ebay
Hey guys, the following sending unit is on ebay right now. It says its also for a M211. Will it work with some modification for my deeper fuel tank?

Hey guys,
Thanks for all the help so far.
My next question is involves a sending unit.
I need a fuel tank sending unit for a M215 as the old one does not appear to be fixable, by me at least.
So, does anybody have any leads on one?
Thanks,
Eric
The system is pretty much empty now so I'm not too worried about mixing it. DOT 3 was what I was going to use.
Thanks for the fast replies.
BTW, any idea how much the system holds?
Thanks
I am in need of a new spring, the one that pulls back on the starter mechanism after pulling the lever on the transmission tower.
Does anybody know where to get a replacement? Even just some measurements would be great if nothing else. I'm sure that in the last fifty years, I'm not the first...
