Abstract

Replacement of the fuel metering jets of an internal combustion engine carburetor, such as a Holley.RTM. or Demon.RTM. Carburetor is greatly simplified by fuel float bowls which permit the jets to face upward. The jets are removed through access holes in the upper wall of the float bowl by a screwdriver/gripping tool. The float has access holes which are aligned to the upper wall holes to provide direct access to the fuel metering jets.
