Old style K&B .67 inboard carb
by bstorm » Fri Apr 14, 2006 9:26 pm
Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a replacement carb for the older style K&B 5100 .67 inboard marine motor. Mine has siezed up and cannot get it to break lose. The old part number is 5176.

HEAT IT UP...!

Gently and gradually get it hot with a propane torch (not red hot!). Heating has worked time and again for me. With it hot, carefully move the throttle arm, and after it starts to move, squirt a little ATF (automatic transmission fluid) around the throttle barrel, then open and close the carb a few times... Works for me.
Hope I'm not stepping on any toes by answering this... Just trying to help.
