Sounds about right. There's one bolt that is *very* tough...so tough, some people have made new wrenches to reach it. Can't recall who, off hand. It might be easier to pull the whole manifold.

I fianly got teh bugger off after about an hour, and inventing my own tool, and removing alot of other parts, and now i have another question lol

Shouldn't there be a gasket between the Carb, and the manifold???

So there is one gasket that should be there then? In that case I better try and get it off the manifold, becuase it definitly was not on the Carbureator

Thanks for the help guys.
