    Quadrajet question

    I finally pulled my carb apart for a quick cleaning, and I noticed something. The carb doesn't have the secondary well tubes, and it doesn't look like they were ever in there.

    1984 Chrysler 35 hp carb with press in seat

    I have a 1984 35 hp (model # 357H4P) Chrysler with a carb problem. When I started redoing the pontoon, I knew the carb leaked gas, but I figured it was a simple cleaning. The new floor, carpet, console and seats are in, and it's set to almost go into the water. But after searching, I found out...
