Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
Anybody have any tips on getting these pesky J tubes taken out of these holly carburetors so I can install new ones? The ones that I have are broken off

Is the flange still there? If Yes, grab with a vice grip and twist back and forth
If not, a left handed drill. Try 5/16 first, then work up
Make an installation tool to drive in the new ones. I use a section of metal tube with a slot cut in it with a die grinder so it pushes the flange in. Put the carb on a block of wood and drive them in
