Buy a rebuild kit for it- has all the gaskets, rubber or composite-made parts, and a few most-wear-prone pieces. But always included with the kit is a sheet of paper showing a blown-up or "exploded" view of the carburetor, and every part is numbered. Starting at 1 and going to often about 100. Or 80 maybe for a small carburetor. But the key is to dismantle it in order from 1 to the end. And to put it back together in just the reverse order.
That's what you have to do. The only way to get it all back together, and the right jets in their proper place, and not spend time putting something on and then having to take it back off because something else went in or on first, you want it to work right after all the frustration and time you spent on it. You won't know until it is bolted back on and the engine started and you have test driven it...you won't know if you did it right until that moment. So get that sheet of paper. Most all carburetors show the last part is the throttle valve body assembly-the base of the carburetor. The obvious place to start. Follow the order back, by the numbers, at one you are done. A rebuilt carburetor!
well sir i do not have any pictures, how ever if you google it you will find tons online from car shows. In the future take pictures before you dismantle a car from front, back sides and bottom so you have then to look back at them later, it will show how things on your vehicle were modified if they had been.
Every carburetor has a set procedure for dismantling. If you buy a rebuild kit for yours, a sheet inside will have an exploded diagram with each part numbered. You follow the numbering guide to take yours apart. When you have everything apart by the guide, then you start cleaning and replacing what parts are in the kit. To put back together, just reverse the procedure-start with the highest number and work backward.
There should be a basic diagram under the hood. Many shop manuals don't have much better. Your best bet might be to call around to junkyards, see if they have one, and go in the yard and look. They are pretty good about that if you just buy something like a cigarette lighter or something. Basically brakes get full vacuum, PCV valve is next, then the A/C ductwork is smaller and shares with the charcoal canister. There should be no leaks. Brakes and PCV are the important ones the rest plug the leaks and go from there.
Holden ,well its a vauxhall or opel to me so its the same and as such the fuel pump is not repairable ,their is a gauze filter on the bottom and check the wires from the connection block into the pump and thats it its a complete unit if it goes wrong complete with the float assembly .you owe me a tinny for this if i ever get enough dosh to visit my son in adelade and two grandaughters .
You might be better off with a digital camera, and take your own pictures of the areas that you think may cause you to scratch your head later when re-assembling. Once on your computer, you can zoom or whatever as needed. If that's not an option, get back to me/us, and we'll dig a little harder and see what we can find.
i do not know if they have your car listed but try www.autozone.com if they do you be able to get diagrams showing you how they go back together if not stop in a local ford dealer in the parts department and they be able to print you off diagrams and pictures showing you how to put them back on.
Your best bet is to get yourself a repair manual from chiltons or strate from G.M. Most all your major auto parts stores have web sites you can go to and get the information and diagrams you need also. A repair manual is best. You also can get them thru Year One. National Parts Depot. Original Parts Groupe, Jegs, and Summit Racing. for your particular project.
