283 2 barrel ( 2GC ) accelerator pump question
(Preview)
Does anyone have experience with replacing an accelerator pump on a 2 barrel 283? I'm reading it is very important that it's ethanol resistant. I'm guessing that is the why the one on this 283 is dead. It dies right out when you try to rev it up any little bit. I found a guy on ebay selling pumps that he says a...

Howdy guys, one of my projects this summer besides taking another long walk through Europe, was to change my 66 Beaumont 283 2 barrel to a slightly peppier 283 4 barrel setup as was optional in the early years of Beaumont. (Not 66 though.) That is to say, the 4GC carb on the small intake that would have bee...
