Hi Dennis;

By regs, your mechanic must have the manual for this carb in order to work on 
it.  Should be available as a download.

As far as the ground wire, it's not only a good idea, but if the aircraft came 
equipped with the strap, it's technically unairworthy without it.  (Wow, lots 
of grumbling going on there!)  Grounding not only helps with radio noise, but 
also with the buildup of static electricity which is why I think it was placed 
on there initially.

  One of the last annual inspection checklist items (checklist from EOC, 
  Courtesy of Ed Burkhead)that need to completed are two items on the 
  carburetor: 1) Carburetor finger screen and 2) Flush Carb float 
  chamber. Since my A&E has never worked on this type carb., could 
  somone please provide some details on how to meet these two 
  requirements? 1946 415C; N2738H; #3363. Thanks, Dennis
