E29 Carb Access

Hi Pallen,

I too own an E29 and have off and on carb problems. I even bought a rebuilt carb from MM, but then couldnt get the old one off to replace it. I drained the gas out of the main bowl, and unstuck a stuck float with a few screwdriver handle raps! I also put some Marvels Mystery Oil in my gas, and have not had a problem since. Marvels Mystery Oil cures many woes!

My question is how did you get the carb off? Was it a special socket? Or did you do what I contemplated and cut the fiberglass panel under the galley sink to get to it?

I dont have a problem now--but am sure I will need to address it down the road. Your advice and experience would be appreciated.
