Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
Do you have a 2100 Holley 3 bolt two barrel or a real '53 Mercury 1901 Holley 4 bolt teapot two barrel carb ? Best price and quality for the 1901 kit I've found is a Daytona kit through seller rburchfield on EBAY.

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
It would be informative to know what carb and manifold are on the car. Someone may have replaced them with a Ford unit in the past since he is asking about a 2100. A car of that apparent quality deserves to have an original unit reinstalled.

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
I stand corrected. The carb is bolted to the manifold with 4 bolts. I assume it's this "teapot carb" I've been hearing about. It does look a little like one. Two barrel.

Daytona Carb Parts. Just yesterday I called, said I need a kit for a 53 Hudson Hornet with a Carter WGD. Without any hesitation, he says, "Oh yes, that'll be our 709 kit."

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
Don,
The stock carb on the 53 Merc was this: the 1901 Holly. Here is the service manual for your files: http://www.oldcarmanualproject.com/m...l19011952.html You can get a rebuilt kit at : Kanter Auto Products https://www.kanter.com/productdetail...Router=Catalog Daytona is also a good source. Look up all of the Ford Barn posts on the carb. Allot of good reading, you might want to start with this one: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showt...arb+hesitation Here is the search list of prior posts: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/searc...4&pp=25&page=2 Last edited by Merc Cruzer; 06-18-2021 at 12:44 PM. |

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
I'm here if I can help. It's easy to see if the accel pump is up to snuff on a 1901 teapot Holley two barrel. It should give a squirt out of the two small brass nozzles coming out of the bottom of the bowl with the slightest movement of the throttle, and are aimed at an angle towards the choke plates. If not, that is more than likely the issue as long as you're sure the ignition timing is set correctly and has a strong blue spark, and that the advance is working properly.

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
When I called for a kit for Ford carb, the lady said something to the effect of, “I’m on my way to the ladies room, I grab the kit and drop by the mail room. It’ll be on its way today”. That’s service!!!......Mark

When I called, the man himself answered. We talked a while about riding motorcycles around Arkansaw.

Re: Who carries a 1953 Mercury carb rebuild kit?
I got the kit for my 52 "teapot" through Mike's Carburetor shop". They have a youtube channel with videos on the kits and installation. Now I just have to get busy and do the actual install on mine. I'm still driving it with the hesitation off idle.
