Enclosed are the DELCO carb parts Uist for the GMC motorhome. The seven
carbs used on the GMC are covered in the three bulletins, #9C-4000, #9C-4001 and
#9C-4002. Two of these. sulletins, #9C-4000 and #9C-4001 show by their issue date
that they were up-dated versions, and I'm sure there has been up-dates since then,
especially in some of the parts numbers, ab improvements were made, and as some
ob the various parts were consolidated to be used on several cars numbers. This is a
common practice used by parts suppliers, and results in the ever-changing format of
cunrent pants lists,
Also included are the sheets on Brad Urban's Carb Shop. I have hi-lited the
items that pettain to a proper carb for the GMC, the boring of the primary throttle
body and installing larger throttle plates should remain strictly up to the individuat
owner, as I feet it is not for ever application. These sheets were furnished to me
from Bob Miller, who has helped Wally Arntzen convert from E.F.I. to a cank built
ty up by Brad Unban, Wally Aintzen bought Fritz Slama’s burnt coach, and it had the
500 CAD engine with uel injection, which was causing Wally a lot of problems.
They sent 4or a carb designed for use on the motorhome, and after numerous phone
calls between Bob and myselt, they have it up and running, and seem to quite
satisbied with the change-over pergounance.
Just a Wriek histor on the Rochester Quadrajet Carburetor: It was introduced
in 1965, a revolutionary design for that time, and went thu subtle changes up to
1975, when stricter emission standards were introduced. These emission standards
forced changes in idle, obf-idle and main system metering control, ad noted in the.
canks and their components for the’ 75 to’ 78 GMC's, especially the '77 and'76's.
Though this does not pertain to the motorhomes, but in 1981, the Q-JET carbs were
equipped with electronic. metering conthols, to meet the stringent emission and
economy regulations, and this continued until 1986. This is good prook of the solid
basic design and the versitility engineered into the Q-JET.
I hope this will be some. info you can use, it is always good to have ample
reference material, especially on some of the specialized items. When one looks at
the cost per mile ob driving the coach, and of that cost per mite, hued is the
biggest percentage, 10 a good, solid working fuel system is quite an asset.
Ba DewGMC MOTORHOME CARBURETORS
The GMC motorhomes came factory equipped with the Rochester
Quadrajet carburetor. Seven different carb numbers were used,
depending on the year and if it had Federal or California
emission standards. The 1973 and 1974 years had carb # 7043254,
while the 1975, 1976 and early 1977 with the 455 engine had carb
# 7045254 for Federal emissions, the California carb for those
years is # 7045554. The 1977 coaches with the 403 engines has
carb # 17057254 for Federal use and the California carb is #
17057559. The 1978 coaches have carb # 17058254 for Federal
application, and the California carb is # 17058559. These carb
numbers can be found on the left side of the carb, stamped on the
flat surface close to the secondary throttle shaft. The numbers
will read from the bottom up. There will also be a four digit
number in that same area, which is the date of manufacture. The
1973 to 1976 coaches have carb numbers that start with "70",
while the 1977 and 1978 carb numbers start with "170". The carbs
with numbers starting with a "170" were built for the stricter
emission standards, and some parts for these carbs are quite
different from the "70" series. DO NOT INTERCHANGE parts between
these different series carbs. One example is the "170" series has
primary metering rods that are 0.080" shorter, they have a
different taper to the rods, and these carbs used different sizes
of primary jets.
Genuine Rochester parts are marketed only thru GM or DELCO
parts dealers, and are made to the proper spec's to bring the
carb up to it's correct settings. Repair Kits are available thru
DELCO that include all gaskets, needle valve and seat, etc. Other
parts that should be included in an overhaul are the float, which
has an updated part number, (7046301), the power piston spring
#7036019, and the correct primary metering jets. A proper carb
overhaul should start with the carb dismantled and soaked in carb
cleaner to remove all the dirt and the varnish that has
accumulated over the years of use. The varnish residue comes from
fuel evaporating during periods of non-use.-2-
Warpage of the fuel bowl and air horn assembly should be
checked. Numerous fuel bowl assemblies have been noted to be
severly warped, this is a problem caused by over-torquing the
5/16" front mounting bolts. These bolts should be torqued to 10
ft/lbs only to prevent carb damage. A common complaint of GMC
coaches is hard starting, especially after the engine has been
shut off for several hours or overnite. This is caused by the
fuel leaking out of the fuel bowl thru the four soft plugs in the
bottom of the fuel bowl assy. This problem can be remedied before
the carb is re-assembled by coating the bottom of the four plugs
with a high-temp, two part epoxy. A good choice for this epoxy is
DURO Master Mend metal repair #QM-80. It is a high-temp epoxy
that sets in 4 to 6 minutes, and is a product of Loctite
The Rochester carbs used on the GMC have some internal parts
that were designed and built just for use on the motorhome. Keep
in mind most loaded coaches will weigh at least three times of
what a full sized car does, so power demands are quite different
The primary metering rods are an example of this, they were
designed with a special power tip, and in the "70" series carbs
these rods will be stamped with "D-50". The "170" series carbs
have metering rods of a different design and should NOT be used
in "70" series carbs. All Q-JET carbs have primary metering jets
that were designed only for the Q-JET carb. Other jets may screw
into the jet ports but may have a different height, thus not
matching the metering rod, therefore giving an improper fuel flow
thru the jet. All GMC carbs have the same secondary metering
rods, and will be stamped with a "CJ" on them. These are quite
durable rods and usually give no problems. The secondary jets are
factory installed and not easily removed, but are also quite
durable and give satisfactory service.
With the proper metering rods and jets, the correct power
piston spring and a good, true intake manifold vacuum, the carb
will dispense an Air-Fuel ratio of approximately 14 to 1. This
will be with manifold vacuum of 8" or moreWhen power is required and the carb is operating on both the
primary and secondary bores, the Air-Fuel mixture furnished to
the engine will be in the range of 12 to 1 .This power ratio is a
richer mixture, used to develop the power needed, and a richer
mixture also helps to cool the internal engine parts, such as the
pistons, valves and heads for longer engine life
During a typical drive with the motorhome, whenever the
intake manifold vacuum is at 8" or above, the carb will be in the
so-called cruise mode. It is operating on the primary part or the
front two bores of the carb. With the proper power piston spring,
#7036019, which has an operating range from 4" to 8" of vacuum
the vacuum overcomes the spring tension and the power piston is
pulled down, pulling the metering rods down into the jets. This
Positions the large diameter of the tapered rods in the jets
thus restricting the fuel flow thru the jets and resulting in a
leaner mix. As the power demand is low, this results in good
economy. When more power is required and the throttle is opened
more, manifold vacuum starts to drop, and as it drops lower than
8" of vacuum, the power piston spring tension is stonger than the
vacuum and the spring starts pushing the power piston up, raising
the metering rods with it. As the metering rods are raised, the
smaller diameter of the rod is positioned in the jet, and a
larger volume of fuel can flow, causing a richer mix to supply
the added power called for. When vacuum has been reduced to 4",
the spring has completely overcome vacuum and the power piston
and metering rods are in the fully raised position. At this stage
the primary bores are furnishing close to their maximum volume of
fuel, and the A/F ratio will be approx 13 to 1.
As the trottle is opened even further, calling for more
Power, the back half or secondary part of the carb goes into
operation. When the vacuum drops below 4", a vacuum break
diaphragm on the side of the carb allows the air valves on the
secondary bores to open up. As the air valves open up, they
operate a cam that lifts the secondary metering rods.As the secondary rods are lifted off their seats, fuel
begins to flow thru the secondary jets, furnishing the added fuel
needed to satisfy power requirements. If the power demand is
strong enough, the carb will eventually be at W.0.T.(wide open
throttle), and the A/F ratio should be in the 12 to 1 range
When power requirements start to diminish, the throttle begins to
close and manifold vacuum begins to increase. As it increases
past the 4" mark, the same vacuum break cylinder that allowed the
secondary air valves to open, now begins to close the air valves.
As the vacuum increases, the secondary air valves become fully
closed, the secondary rods are seated and fuel is stopped flowing
in the secondary jets. The carb is now back to operating on the
front or primary bores again, and as vacuum goes up and past the
8" mark, the carb will be back in the cruise mode for economy
So from the above, it is easy to see how important good
manifold vacuum is to carb operation and engine efficiency
Manifold VACUUM is the SIGNAL the engine gives the CARB, so the
carb can adjust to the immediate fuel demands of the engine. This
is why vacuum hose replacement should be part of any carb re-
build. Vacuum hoses are subject to engine compartment heat and
fuel fumes and can become cracked and brittle, allowing vacuum
leaks, allowing unfiltered air to enter the engine and to give
false vacuum readings. Don't forget the short hose on the
transmission modulator, located on the lower right side of the
transmission. Use a top quality hose with heavy enough wall
thickness so it won't collapse during high vacuum conditions. A
good choice for this is the Belden brand sold through NAPA
stores. It is a good policy at this time to replace the PVC
valve, located on the right rocker arm cover. The proper
replacement for this is Delco # 679, as this valve has the
correct tension spring and valve for both Olds engines. The PVC
hose can be replaced with a heavy wall 3/8" fuel line hose, with
a small hose clamp on each end.
I hope this helps to understand the Q-JET carbA proper carb overhaul can result in as much as 1 mile per
gallon increase or more in mileage, so for the GMC that is about
a 10% improvement, plus you have the added performance. This is a
good return for the few dollars invested in the carb repair.
An increasing problem for Q-JET owners is finding a repair
shop that has the skill and knowledge to do a top-notch repair
job on the Q-JET carb. Most present day fuel system technicians
have been trained for the fuel injection systems that are on the
late model engines. The removal and dis-assembling of the Q-JET
is not a overly difficult job, as long as it is done slowly so as
to familiarize one-self with some of the components, and their
respected positions. There have been several good books written
on these carbs, one of them being ROCHESTER CARBURETORS written
by Doug Roe and published by HP Books, #014. The DELCO carb repair
kit has all the necessary instructions for re-assembly, and list
the complete spec's for proper adjustment.
GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY GMC-ing
Yop LDeawaeFeb 1, 1994
Ralph;
I read with interest the chart you sent on the GMC engine
numbers and the carburetor numbers for the various year coaches.
It is important to note that there are numerous errors and
deletions for the carb parts in the 78Z motorhome parts book.
Just some of the examples of this; on page 12-12 of the parts
book, there are only THREE primary metering rods listed, (key #
24), where if you check the DELCO parts list that I sent you,
there will be FOUR metering rods, used on the seven carbs for the
various years. As for the primary jets, (key # 25), the parts
book only list THREE jet numbers, when actually there are FIVE
jet sizes used, depending on the engine application. This has
caused a lot of confusion, especially when the part numbers used
by GM and the DELCO part numbers differ for the same part. This
is more-so aggrevated lately by the fact Delco now has up-dated
their parts list, and are using the last FIVE DIGITS of the GM
number for a DELCO number. An example of this is the DELCO POWER
KIT, say for the 1973 to 1976 coaches, is changed from the
original DELCO number of 9258 and 9269 and combined into one kit
with a DELCO number of 76057. The GM number for this kit will be
17076057, note that it carries the same last "five digits",only
is preceded with "170". These changes were to consolidate parts
and keep better inventory control. So, it is easy to see how
valuable a good parts man is when it comes to keeping up with
changes, and be willing to dig up this info!
As stated above, the 1973 to 1976 coaches, and the early
1977's with the 455 engine have a POWER KIT number of DELCO
76057, and the late 1977 thru the 1978's with the 403 engine will
have a DELCO POWER KIT with a 76031 number. The overhaul kit is
no longer available from DELCO,that kit had all gaskets plus the
primary metering rods, the primary jets, needle and seat,etc for
that particuler carb. The kit available now is the "POWER KIT",
which has all gaskets, needle and seat and other small parts fora proper re-build. A VERY IMPORTANT step in assembly of a
carb is to have the correct gaskets for that specific carb, as
there are changes in air passages in the body casting of some
carbs, and without the proper gasket, these passages may be
blocked off, if the gasket does not have a punched hole to allow
these passages to operate. EXAMPLE; From the DELCO PARTS LIST
ITEM #2,the AIR HORN GASKET for the 1977 coach is #17051797,
while the gasket for the 1978 carbs is #17056357. Both of these
gaskets will be in the DELCO POWER KIT #76031, as this kit covers
all the carbs for the '77 and'78 coaches with the 403 engine.
While we are on the subject of gaskets, the heavy gasket that is
used to mount the carb to the intake manifold, and also the
gasket between the throttle body assy and the fuel bowl are of a
design to not only be a vacuum tight seal, but also to be an
INSULATING barrier to prevent intake manifold heat from
transferring to the carb and causing fuel perculation in the fuel
bowl.
To comment on the use of different carbs for GMC motorhones,
be it from a Toronado, Eldorado ect. or having a carb number not
listed in the DELCO carb numbers for the motorhome: EVERY
ROCHESTER Q-JET CARB HAS A NUMBER STAMPED ON THE CARB. This is
NOT a PART NUMBER, it is a CARB NUMBER that idenifies what the
carb was designed and built for. It may be built for a passenger
car, it may be used in a delivery van, or , in our case, it was
designed and built for use in the GMC motorhome. The AIR HORN
ASSY, FLOAT BOWL ASSY, and THROTTLE BODY ASSY may be of a common
basic design, but the INTERNAL PARTS and COMPONENTS will be
installed to make this carb do the job it was intended for. when
the engineering for the carb on the GMC was done, Rochester took
into account what was required, such as weight of the vehicle
wind resistance, payload carried, economy, and proper Air-Fuel
mixture to insure longivity of engine components, and starting in
1975, to meet emission standards. This research resulted in the
installation of the various internal carb parts specifiedto provide the performance required of the vehicle it is
going to be installed on. These parts usually consisted of
various sized primary jets, sized primary metering rods, the
correct power piston spring, and secondary metering rods. There
may be some subutle changes in air bleed orfices or fuel pick-up
tubes,ect, but the above items do the main job of meeting the
spec's called for. An example of spec-ing out a carb is the ones
used in the GMC, for instance, the '73 to early '77 have a
primary metering rod that was designed JUST for the GMC, and is
stamped with "50-D". This rod is a special designed rod that has
a “power tip" that meets the needs of the motorhome, and is used
in conjunction with the #7031970 metering jet and the #7036019
power piston spring. This combination of parts in the primary
side of the Q-JET carb gives the 455 engine the proper fuel ratio
needed. The LAST TWO digits on the jet number gives the jet size
this jet being a #70 (.070" orifice size), and the power spring
has a range of 8" to 4" of vacuum. This carb is provided with
SECONDARY METER RODS that will perform according to the
requirements asked for, in this case it is rod #7045780, which
will be stamped with the letters 'CJ'. These are the parts used
in the Q-JET carb for '73 thru the early '77 coaches with
Federal emissions. The ONLY change for Calif. emissions carbs
in regard to the above internal parts, is the PRIMARY METERING
JETS, which are #7031968, a jet .002" smaller in size.This jet
size difference and a few minor changes in the throttle body assy
was all that was needed to pass Calif. standards. This is a very
modest part change, but in order to IDENIFY the difference
between the two carbs, ROCHESTER stamped a DIFFERENT CARB NUMBER
on the CALIF. carb, (#7045554) to distinquish it from the FEDERAL
carb, which has (#7045254) stamped on it. This is why the GMC has
SEVEN CARB NUMBERS in it's five years of production, improvements
and changes brought on mostly by the emissions compliance, but
every change in a carb requiring a NEW CARB NUMBER-4-

I am enclosing the spec sheets that come with the DELCO
POWER KIT, spec sheet #153 from the KIT #76057 which covers the
carbs on the '73 to early '77 with the 455 engine, and the spec
sheet #158 from the KIT #76031 which covers the carbs on all the
403 engines, '77 thru '78. Sheet #153 has almost 190 carb numbers
listed with sheet # 158 just a few less, so it is easy to see
just how many different carbs ROCHESTER built for a specific job
to do, each carb with a different number and different parts and
various settings to accomplish it's assigned job. This is not to
say that some carb bodies cannot be used on the GMC, there are
some expert carb shops that can measure and test various carbs
and bring them up to a level for good motorhome performance. The
use of improper repair kits and poor workmanship are the causes
of the majority of unsatisfactory carb repair jobs. A worse
situation is an owner exchanging the original carb for a rebuilt
carb and not getting the proper spec's for the motorhome. He not
only has "turned in" probably a repairable core, but has also
loss some of the critical internal parts.0 oe a0 orf eer ve TSzIvOL
