Above, SOLEX carb
While I was in Alaska I rebuilt the motor again. This time I had it sleaved back to standard.
We only stayed in Alaska for 3 years.  As luck would have it I got orders for Florida 6 months after installing a snow plow on my Chevy truck and after finally finding a hard top for the jeep.  Unfortunately, I didn't have storage for the top. (Just in case you were wondering, I was able to unload the plow on my neighbor as I didn't figure I needed the plow in Florida.).
The trip to humidity was okay.
The next 4 years were great for driving the jeep to work, etc.
In the picture at left you can see the Solex carb.  I have tried a number of Carters but they never seemed to do me right, no matter who rebuilt them.  The Solex helps the jeep to run much smoother, especially when coupled with the electronic ignition. Recently, I seen an article on putting fuel injection on an L-134...naw, I can't justify the expense but it was done.
