Removing the Old Carburetor (if applicable)
Carefully disconnect fuel lines, vacuum lines, and throttle linkage. Remove mounting nuts and lift the old carburetor from the intake manifold. Clean the manifold surface thoroughly.
Mounting the New Carburetor
Place the new carburetor gasket onto the intake manifold studs. Carefully lower the Holley Sportsman Dominator carburetor onto the studs, ensuring it seats properly. Install and hand-tighten the mounting nuts. Torque the nuts evenly in a crisscross pattern to the manufacturer's specifications (typically 120-140 in-lbs for 5/16" studs).
