Carburetor question
I'm in the process of rebuilding my 4bbl quadrajet, and after separating all three pieces, a bearing fell out of the float system somewhere. I have no idea what this bearing is, or where it exactly came from, and I was counting on one of you who have possibly rebuild their carb?

Just rebuilt my 3 Rochester 2 bbls for my tripower. The 1970 carbs didn,t have this. The 1971 carb did.
Exactly, this is what it was, thanks guys.
