Hi, I recommend you take pictures while taking things apart so you will remember how they go back together. I have pasted the procedure below from autozone.com. The procedure says to drain the coolant. I don't believe that is necessary. If there is a coolant hose on your carburetor, have something like a rag handy to plug the hose when you take it off. There cannot be a lot of coolant in the carburetor, if any. You can also skip the step of disconnecting the battery cable. Also, you may want to tag wires and hoses before removing them if you aren't sure you'll remember where they went to. When disconnecting the fuel line, we usually use a line wrench, unless the fitting uses a regular bolt. If you don't have a line wrench, use an open end wrench. If the open end wrench is going to strip the fitting, go buy or borrow a line wrench. Do not use vice grips on the fuel fitting. Don't leave stuff sitting on the manifold that may fall into the engine while you're taking the carburetor off, and stuff rags in the holes while the carb is off the engine. If the old gasket is good and you don't have a new one you can reuse the old one. If you have a new one, make sure any old gasket material stuck to the maniflod is cleaned off with a putty knife. The last step is to check the float level. If you believe your new carburetor has been properly adjusted for your truck, you can skip that step. If you aren't sure, you could always adjust it later if the truck seems to run lean or rich. The procedure and specification (float level) should be included with the carburetor. If you get stuck or have questions along the way, please get back to me.

2. Loosen the radiator drain plug and drain the coolant into a suitable container.
   

1. Unscrew the mounting screws and remove the air filter housing. Disconnectall hoses and lines leading from the air cleaner.
2. Tag and disconnect all fuel, vacuum, coolant and electrical lines or hoses leading from the carburetor.

4. Remove the four carburetor mounting bolts and lift off the carburetor and its gasket.

1. Install the carburetor, tighten the mounting bolts and reconnect all linkages.
2. Connect the vacuum and fuel lines; connect the wiring harness.
