Classic/Antique Car Repair: 1960 AMC Rambler Carburetor, carter carburetors, carter carburetor
QuestionI am trying to find out how to get my hands on a rebuild kit for my Rambler's carburetor, 1960 I6 engine. It is a Holley one barrel but I can not find any markings on it (not even near the fuel inlet) to identify it. It is a one barrel Holley with the rectangular forward facing float chamber. All the web sites I've visited suggest that in 1960 the Rambler had a Carter carburetor, but this one does not. Thanks in adavce for any help!
AnswerI apologize for being slow to answer - the allexperts system is having some kind of a problem - I got no questions for a few days, now there are a bunch of them stacked up in my in-box!
The 1960 Rambler used the Holley R-1598-2A on a few cars, although 99% of them had Carter carburetors. The kit for the Holley is 85R-709.
