Inside this document

Carter operating principles, inspection, repair, adjustments and overhaul for several carburetor families, including W-1. Printed page 32 contains Chevrolet W-1 specifications. GM's 1946 Chevrolet passenger-car specifications identify W-574S as regular equipment and W-492S as economy RPO 224; both appear in this manual's Chevrolet table. Other sections cover multiple vehicle makes, not universal Chevrolet applications.
Complete independent GPO/UNT scan in one 136-page PDF; includes the title, printed pages 3–131, notes leaf, covers and endpapers.
