I have a marvel " Rayfield " on my 30 coupe...and when I got it I took the carb off and cleaned it and it runs real good. The starting procedure is the same as the original carb, One turn open when cold and 1/4 turn when warmed up. It just sounds like if you have to open it that much to get it th run right...there's a blockage somewere. I could be wrong...but I think there is a removable jet under the needle on the fuel mixture rod. If you haven't had it out yet, there may be something blocking it. Just a thought.
I'd like to find someone who has info. on the Rayfield, I hear people mention the marvel carb, but never the rayfield part. If anyone has the info on this carb please let me know. Thanks and good luck.
