Carb replacement 1965 GMC 305
This will be my first post. carb had been rebuilt when I got the truck, it’s leaking, went to remove the oil pan - seems like someone did some welding by connecting the oil pan to the mouth of the carb. Looking for advice on how to handle. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...88615d49ce.jpg

That may be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. I'd probably get a sanding wheel for my drill or my grinder and just sand that weld aloose a little at a time then try to smooth everything out.
Regardless, it's going to have to get off there. |

Don't forget to close the choke so dust can't enter the intake.

Yep, cosmically dumb!
It would be nice if the pan doesn't make it impossible to remove the carb. |
