We shared Part 1 of Scott’s Q-Jet rebuild series already, but here is Part 2 so you know how to get it all back together and in working order. It’s not too difficult, just a bit different than a Holley or Edelbrock. If you missed Part 1, don’t worry because there is a link below.
I’ve been a Quadrajet fan for a long long time, but that’s because we ran NHRA Stock Eliminator, and in it we had to run a Quadrajet for our particular combo. I’ve built a ton of them over the years and they are great carburetors for street use. They get a bad rap sometimes, but overall they are cool as well because they have small primary throttle bores and giant secondary bores. So when the secondaries come in with a Quadrajet, you know it by sound and feel. And Q-Jets aren’t hard to rebuild, but they are different than a Holley by a lot.
In this video we’ll see Scott Liggett of Rebeldryver’s Garage finishing up the rebuild on one so you know how. After all, sometimes you can just do a simple carb rebuild and get all the performance back that you need from your Q-Jet.

Video Description:
This is part two of how to rebuild a Rochester Quadrajet four barrel carburetor that covers the assembly. We use the KISS principle once again, Keep It Simple Stupid! We also show a couple simple fixes that cause these carburetors to be a headache.
These Quadrajet carbs can be tricky and are more complicated than Holley or Edelbrock versions to assemble and get right, but they work fantastic when they are set up correctly. Follow along as we get this carb we got for free back in working order.
