I had to beat the hell out of the carb to get it to separate, but that carb was junk since the check ball and weight were stuck inside the AP circuit.

Do I need to take out the middle first? I've got the part that the spring sets on out but not the side that has the linkage on it. linkage is out covers are off. just need that and the last the
