Good evening! I passed Chuck a PDF of the 1983 Carter BBS Service Manual, and he kindly uploaded it to the Articles section. The file can be viewed here:

Thank you, Chuck!

Actually, that document has been available on this site for many years now. It's the first nine pages of the Carter BBS download here.

D'oh. I had seen that file. I'd assumed it wasn't for '83, and that the '83 document would differ.

I haven't looked at that file, cant remember when I messed with a BBS, but its from 1983? I didn't think anybody was using that carb on anything (except maybe some industrial application?) for around 10 years or more by then.

Last year for the BBS in the US and Canada was 1974 on 225 trucks and vans. Export-spec trucks and vans with the 225 engine were equipped with the BBS up through the early 1980s. But this guidebook doesn't go into specific-year variants of the carb, it's just an explainer of the architecture and configuration and basic rebuild technique of the BBS carbs over their whole production life.
