Hey everyone, I've had a carb rebuild kit for about a half a year kit and still haven't done anything with it, so I decided to stop struggling and putting it off and reach out. My problem is I have absolutely no idea how to get the stock mikuni off the intake manifold. I tried to follow my Chilton manual and remove the bolts but I honestly don't think that I had the right ones, and of course that's the only step that doesn't have a picture in the manual. Any idea what I need to remove to get the carb off? and possibly where I can find a better manual? (Truck is an 84 with the G63B and stock 2 barrel Mikuni)

Hello nitro, a Mikuni rebuild is quiet the project but you can do it ~ the carb has FIVE hold down bolts the 5th a small short bolt front driver side of carb ~ drain some 1/2 gallon coolant before removing the carb

Check out my threads & photo albums of Mikuni Rebuild

Good Luck ~ George

update, tried to get the carb off today and it turns out the bolts weren't the issue, i took off all the correct ones in the first place. It seems like the carb is stuck down to the manifold.
