After searching for a rebuild kit and failing to find a suitable kit to rebuild the carb with. I decided to install the new carburetor and go with that. I will keep the old carb and rebuild it at home and have a spare for when it is needed…
So after priming the engine and making some minor adjustments. It purrs like a kitten, which it has never run that good before. The last carb was a Chinese made version and it was just never right from the beginning. This carb as I said a few posts ago, is made in Saint Petersburg, Russia and it is just a whole bunch better…
Now I just have to wash the poor car and wax her. She is covered in mud and not happy at the way she looks. So it is bath time and then after she drys, I will touch up the bad spots with paint also…
Right now all we have is a few mosquito and flies. The horse flies and deer flies are not around yet and down in the village they are prevalent during the summer. Why they think that this American is a delicious treat and attack me from every angle possible… 🙂
So have a great day and Sveta, Boza and I are going to take the Volga for a test run and see how she runs on benzine. Gotta save that propane for going home…
