Rebuilding
the Carter W-O Carb

A pretty good rebuilding guide was written by Richard Meagley and posted on
his website Mightymo.Org. For that reason, and the fact that I used his rebuilding
guide to rebuild my own WO, I won't go in to too much detail here.
 Thankfully,
Eugene still had the original Carter W-O carb. For originality, not
functionality, I wanted to keep it. A newer carb called a Solex,
is also available as a replacement today. |
 I got my
rebuild kit from Walck's (case not included). I like to organize all
the parts and spread them out. The case keeps me from losing the
little pieces. |
 Having gotten
way ahead of myself rebuilding carbs in the past and not remembering how
they go back together, I now take photos from all sides to show how the
linkages go back together. |

The Carter W-O is very simple and comes apart into three sections. |
 After the
rebuild and all clean! |

 Brand new
carb! |
 Update
3/12/07: My "rebuilt" carb never seemed to operate correctly, so I
bought a show-quality rebuilt W-O from Kaiser-Willys. I am very
pleased with the quality and it ran correctly right out of the box.
All my carburetor woes have been fixed! |
 Here's the
carb installed and it looks and functions great! |
