I'll open this year old thread again just to tease us a little, and cry in my beer about loosing the deal. I just hope somebody on this site got in on this. Last week on Ebay several ads showed up about 4 stud Willys wheels, W hub caps, hubs, and the axle. The seller had parted out an old trailer and didn't know the stuff was DJ3A. Obviously some other sharp eyed players saw what I did, as there was serious mashing of keyboards at the auction end. All I ended up with was the W hub caps. Better luck next time.

I'd probably take the carb to a good carb shop and have them run through it. Usually less than $100, then you have the original one. That's a very cool little jeep, don't see to many in right hand drive with an auto.

Hi Glad you are making some progress with your DJ3A. I suspect the transmission is a Borg Warner automatic, similar to that used on Studebakers. I, too am having a float problem with my Surrey. I have one fuel filter prior to the fuel pump, but need to put another one between the pump and the carb. I take the top off, work the float valve and put it back together and like Bruce says, it works OK for a while, then a bit of foreign material gets in there and just floods it to the point the engine will barely run above an idle. Patience is something Jeep owners learn!!!

How about adding a Carter sediment bowl filter to the fuel line between the pump and carb, Colin? Period correct and functional at the same time...
