I will look into this paper filter Thanks

I have found two problems one was the pump and too solve it I did what Bob recommended and put fuel into the pump and it started working after about a minute.

The second was the needle in the carb. It was stuck. The jeep is now running. I need to find the float setting (trial and error)so that I can set up the carb.

Thanks for the help
Richard

Flip the bowl upside down and use a long 1/4" bolt across the top of the carb to set the float level. I believe that is without the gasket, but quite frankly even with the gasket it won't make much of a difference. I did not find these carbs to be too finicky.

And don't use ethanol.
