needle on Holley

Post by khnaess »

Hello!
My Holley 64-5337 seems to flood from time to time and I like to check the needle and seat for dirt. But where do I find the float needle on my carb? Shouldn there be a screw somewhere? Also I cant see a side plug that can be opened to check the float level.
I have looked at Holleys pages but cant find a exloded view on this particular carb.
Somebody?

From what I can determine from that part number and a few descriptions from holley about it is, that what you have there is a Holley rebuilt Autolite 2100. Not unheard of as in the past I have purchased Holley re manufactured quadrajets. But for service information lookup OEM instructions, or information about the Autolite 2100. You will have to remove the carb air horn to get access to the needle and seat on this one.

Pull the top off, pry the clip back on the float pin retainer and there you go!
