      Anyone know what safety tips Edelbrock manuals highlight? I got their carburetor kit for my old truck, and while tinkering last weekend, I nearly forgot to disconnect the battery. My buddy laughed, saying I could’ve fried something! I want to make sure I’m not missing key safety stuff before I dive back in.

      Yikes, close call with the battery! I’ve been there, messing with an Edelbrock carb last year and learning the hard way about grounding. The manuals are great for safety tips—stuff like proper ventilation and checking for fuel leaks. You can find them at https://manuals.online/edelbrock . I remember installing mine in my garage, and the manual’s warning about keeping a fire extinguisher nearby saved me from a small spill scare. Check the section on installation for your kit’s model!

      Always read the entire installation manual before beginning any work. Improper installation can void your warranty, damage the vehicle, or cause injury!

      I’ve worked with Edelbrock parts for a while, and their manuals usually stress some solid safety points. I recall one emphasizing wearing gloves and eye protection when handling fuel lines, which I always do now after a friend got a nasty splash. They also mention double-checking torque settings to avoid leaks. I don’t have a specific manual in mind, but those tips stuck with me from my last project. Definitely worth reading through before you start wrenching again.
