★ Throttle shaft wear is a common problem with old Carter carburettors and often causes irregular idle speed and vacuum leaks. Replacement restores correct operation.
Installation notes
The throttle shaft must be correctly centred in the carburettor body. The throttle valve has a marked side (letter C in circle) which must face the idle opening and inlet manifold. Screws must be tightened evenly whilst holding the valve lightly closed to ensure correct centring.
Compatibility
Suitable for Carter WO carburettors as used on vehicles with L-134 engine. Please note: this is NOT compatible with Carter YF or YS carburettors used on other models. Check the carburettor type before ordering.
Historical context
The Carter WO carburettor was fitted to military jeeps during WWII and remained in use on early post-war civilian models. Throttle shaft wear is a known weak point on these carburettors due to the open-bearing design.
