Servicing The Rochester Quadrajet Carburetor

Moses Ludel shows us hot to renew this famous spread-bore's performanceFrom the postwar era to the mid-'80s, General Motors' Rochester Division defined carburetor performance. Rochester also developed the mechanical fuel injection systems found on '57-'59 full-size Chevys, the '57-'58 Pontiac Bonnevilles, and the '57-'65 Corvette small-block V-8s. At the dawn of the muscle car era, Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Cadillac turned to Rochester for reliable triple two-barrel performance, and the mid-'50s Cadillac Eldorado engines featured dual Rochester 4GC four-barrel carburetors. A single 4GC carburetor was common on high-compression GM V-8s until the mid-'60s, when the introduction of the Rochester Quadrajet took four-barrel performance to the next level.inline_mediumwraptextright28228594/techarticles/corp_1004_corvette_carburetor_rebuildcorp_1004_01+ corvette_carburetor_rebuild+.jpgTrue
