I am working on a 49 "C". I have gone thrugh the carb (zenith 9705) and even rebuilt it. There is a hole on it that I dont know what is for. I can not find any solid information online about it. The hole is on the bottom of what appers to be the througt of the carb.
  Hope this help. Thank you. ------------- 1949 "C" vin #c71215, 1939 "B" Wide front, WD45 nf, WD45 wf, 1941 "C" work in progress. Wd wide front |

That hole is a vent and should be filled with a porus material. Green Magazine just did an article about it. Maybe a freind will have a copy. I just gave mine away yesterday, but will get it back in about 2 weeks. LOL Bob ------------- 4 B's, 1 C's,3 CA's, 2 G's WD, D14, D15, B-1, B10, B12, 712S, |
