76 Q-Jet seconary choke pull off??????????
Hi,
I have an early 76 L48 with auto trans. My Q-Jet carb numbered
17056206 is correct for the year and configuration. The carb has a secondary choke pull off at the rear right side of the carb that needs to be replaced. I think this part is also know as a "rear vacuum break".
Autozone, Advance, and NAPA so far have not been able to find this part. Dr. Rebuild's catalog says 75 carbs had a secondary choke pull off. The carb numbers for 75 do not match my carb number. I have not tried GM yet. I ordered up the 75 secondary choke pull off from Autozone but will have to wait to see if it is correct. Has anyone else got this problem. Were there rolling changes on parts for carbs?
Thanks! Greg
PS. The part number on the pull off is 50733.

Just a note for info. I have an early 76 L48 with a T-10 4 speed transmission and the carb. only has a vacuum unit on the front side of the carb. not the rear.
The number is 17056207.
So I guess this means make sure the parts man looks up an auto transmission carb.
good luck
