    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    Eventually I did find the gasket for the accelerator pump discharge valve while I was reassembling the carburetor with new parts. The carburetor is back on the tractor and runs well, but I still have to choke it a lot.

    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    The illustrated parts diagram for the Metering Body (P/N 18 in my parts manual) shows that in addition to the Acceleration Pump, Piston Assembly (P/N 14: Vacuum Piston, Accelerating Pump Piston, etc.) there are also parts 18A and 18B which are designated the Accelerator Pump Discharge Valve...

    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    500 degrees in the oven for 30 minutes and the piston pulled right out. Everything else appears to be fine. Still no sign of the pump valve gasket. Does anyone know anything about this part, such as is it really a gasket or is it a really small O-ring?

    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    Thank you Bill. The carburetor was working, but only by choking it severely. I found the frozen acceleration pump piston when I took the carburetor off to clean it. I’ll probably just reassemble it as is and see if cleaning it has reduced the need to choke it.

    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    The boiling water did not work. I think I need more heat, maybe 450 degrees in the oven. Any thoughts or concerns? Also, does anyone know anything about the gasket for the accelerator pump valve?

    Ford 2000 Holley R3656-A Accelerating Pump Piston stuck

    The accelerating pump piston in my Holley R3656-A is stuck in the metering body. I've tried soaking in penetrating oil and carb cleaner to no avail. I'm thinking heat might be the solution. An additional concern that I have is that I removed the Accelerator Pump Valve from the metering body...

    Chinese PTO driveline guard replacement

    I have a Chinese manufactured (Farmer Helper) flail mower and I need to replace the PTO driveline guard. The shape of the driveline tubing and the universal joint measurements indicate that it is an Italian series 4 configuration. I took the bearings out of the Weasler Easy Lock PTO guard on my...

    Ford 2000 oil in spark plug wells

    A new gasket has fixed the leaking valve cover. So far there’s no sign of oil in the spark plug wells. Thanks for the insight, this remedy was so much less involved than I feared it would be.

    Thank you Old. The valve cover is leaking. I’ll replace it and see if that takes care of the problem.
