Carter WO Rebuild

This will follow the rebuild of a Carter model WO as found on Willys L134 engines. This carb is from a 1953 CJ3A, but any Carter WO is similar enough that this information should be useful.

In the beginning:

I purchased the vehicle in good running condition and a rebuild wasn't absolutely necessary. However, I wanted to write a web page on the subject and thought rebuilding it would be a good idea. Below are some pictures before the rebuild. These were documentation photos for reference (incase I forgot where something went)
