TECH: HOW TO: Install 9630K-81 Accelerator pump kit

PARTS REPLACEMENT

a) Use the small screwdriver or pliers to unhook the spring (33) from the accelerator pump lever (34). Disconnect the accelerator pump rod (3) from the ball sockets at each end. Disconnect the choke valve tension spring (14) using the pliers, and remove the choke lever fulcrum screw (1). Remove the five airhorn screws (31) and their lock washers. Lift the airhorn (32) off, with the accelerator pump attached.

b) Remove the small cotter (split) pin from the top of the accelerator pump (10), then remove the screw (35) to release the accelerator pump lever (34) from the airhorn. Now you can remove the accelerator pump down through the casting.

c) Remove the new cotter pin from the top of the new accelerator pump (10) and install the pump into the casting taking care not to wrinkle the leather seal or catch it on the slot in the pump well. Place a new airhorn gasket (20) in the correct position on the bowl casting, and slide the airhorn back on, inserting the top of the accelerator pump through the correct hole in the airhorn as you do so. The felt washer goes on the inside of the airhorn, of course. Now fasten the airhorn down with the five lock washers and screws to 5in/lb torque. Install the other parts removed above in (a) in reverse order, keeping the pump low in the carburetor. Attach the accelerator pump rod (3) before hooking up the fulcrum lever spring (33) to avoid catching the leather pump seal.
