if you have the carb off of the car it is easier to set the thing sideways to take out the pin because there is a tiny washer on each side of the "rockingbackandfourththingy" which will fall into the little crack at the end of the pin when you pull it through and it will get stuck that way
as for the "c" clip just push it off with the end of a flathead screwdriver or something ionno

if you get a set of those wrenches with the racheting end on it make the carb wicked easy to take off. Especially that one nut in the back. You can use a regular box end wrench but your going to loose your patience, or atleast I did.

Look down the car at the primaries, with the car off. Open the primary butterflies, If you see the thing in the middle squirting some gas in, then it should be ok, i think.

want to know how to adjust the ac do some searching..
