No getting mad because I wanted opinions on if anyone had used a china carb. not assholes reasons the carb wasn't rebuilt right.and could be fixed and challenging me if I was old enough to be a real mechanic and then challenging my age.so it looks like you are the one that made this personal by taking hits at me.im going to be the bigger man here an this is my last post and I'm unsubscribing from my own thread because I'm tired of dealing with this crap.and you go on living your perfectly miserable life as the asshole you are

I've rebuilt carbs on different vehicles I've had for over 30 years. I've rebuilt a couple that have worn out bodies where the linkage components go in, they went in the trash. I also worked for a time at a local automotive business where we took cores back on carbs, we had a whole box in the back with carbs that weren't worth fixing or couldn't be fixed.
Back to the china carb, if it's half the price probably worth trying imo if $$ is an issue, gl.

By the way anyone know how to get a administrator to delete a post ? This has just gotten stupid and irrelevant to my question and just turned into a pissing match between 2 people.

It's about time I get a positive response that relevant to my post thanks and yes $ is an issue.and yes the stock carb throttle shafts are wore out and they need bushings installed.but I didn't state that because it wasn't worth arguing over. I only paid $500 for the truck it it's just my work beater.

This and many other sites exist for people that range from licensed mechanics to people that never touched a wrench until they bought their vehicle.
Im not your average shade tree mechanic that asked autozone employees how to repair things either I'm a diesel mechanic

What's this even have to do with this thread. Just about every post that you have left has been downgrading or picking at this guy. He merely asked a question and from that first question you kept going on about the same thing. Sure I'd asked him about rebuilding the old as well. However when he responded that it was junk I'd left it be. You act extremely childish with your little tampax pic and all childish post. And so what it doesn't matter what this guy does for a living. We only know what they tell us, but if we personably new them then we could prove what they do. Just like your suppose to be a architect or something like that according to your profile. So what's you to say that your a massive carb guru are u certified carb mechanic. Probly not buy you probably know what your doing. So instead of bashing this guy why not try helping him with his original question not with what you want him to do.
As for the china carb I for one have read lots of reviews on one in the past. When I bought my truck it had a ford carb with a little homemade adapter plate in between. It ran really good but just wasn't right. I wanted a replace to put back. Hours of searching led to me eBay were I got a recondition aisin for 250.00 shipped. So I'd check there as well. Good luck ole buddy

If I remember we discussed issues of a carburetor leaking before. What I find interesting is that some have a fuel leak, like from a gasket, and like many here, (me too) have a fuel drain. On my 2 carbs the fuel will drain out of the bowl on its own after the engine has stopped. What I find interesting is why it is doing it. From what I've read elsewhere, the cause could be from fuel perculating in the float bowl. But Toyota designed the plastic spacer to isolate the metal intake manifold from the metal of the carburetor. Therefore that should eliminate heat transfer that way. The other would be from general engine compartment heat causing the fuel to percolate.
The other cause of fuel draining is from the carburetor becoming pressurised and forcing the fuel through the normal passageways into the intake manifold.
If the reason "why" could be answered, then we could solve this carburetor issue we all have.

Do you have a link for this reman carb? I'm curious. I can understand your frustration of rebuilding the carb and it still not working correctly.

Well he's probably going to get all pissy again cause im commenting.
But the original question has pretty much been answered. Nobody has used the china carb yet. If yo got that route, let us know how it is.

Belive it or not its not a reman its new.I went on and ordered it so I guess we will see how it works out here in a few weeks.I figured its worth a try he has sold many new landcruiser carbs and has no negative feedback.And thanks for explaning to everyone what we are goin though to try to get these to stop leaking.i wasnt going to put forth the time to explane when i was just going to get bashed for it anyway.When it arrives im going to run the truck till its warm them pour some fuel system dye into the bowl through the vent and let it sit over night and pull it the next day and check it out with a uv light and try to figure out were the leak might be from to help everyone else out with this problem.ill post a link when i get time later on

Like I said, I'm glad your fuel bowl drainage is fixed. I do know with mine, that fuel is draining out of the fuel bowl into the manifold. Here's a picture I took showing the fuel on the carburetor spacer.
The right side of the spacer is darker in color because of the fuel that had drained out of the float bowl. Plus the liquid smelled of fuel.
So in my case, I still believe that something is causing the fuel to travel the normal internal carburetor circuit(s) and then empty out into the intake manifold as if the engine were running.
