Default HELP! Carter Carb
Top of Carter seems stuck, got all the screws, fuel line, and linkages, tapped the sides, yes, took a small screwdriver to gasket and comes up little, but really stuck, what did I forget? or just keep prying without a sledge
hammer?

I'm not saying that to take a shot at you. I missed a screw the last time I took mine apart. I think there's 9 or 10 that hold the top on.

I bet the requisite service manual has the answer.
