Re: Wizard carb rebuild
Gaskets fit and the float valve fits
Needle and jet must be restored (usually nothing wrong with the jet and the needle is an easy fix)

Re: Wizard carb rebuild
Main jet and needle valve do not interchange as I recall. I "think" they can be made to work. A few other pieces I think do fit. Of course, that special flapper that makes the Wizard/Simmons work like they do is unique to them, and aren't generally available anywhere. One can be made, but the weight and balance for them is critical!
Modern so-called gasoline is so different from what they were designed for, I wonder just how much the original flappers may not be right enough these days?
