Recommended carb rebuilder
I do not give recommendations lightly. Sal does great work, inexpensively. He has a plethora of parts.
Ship him your carb and you'll get it back in no time. Mine bolted on and drove smoothly. Other than setting the timing and the idle it drove fine, right out of the box. I did have to adjust the kick-down.
Sal's number is (586) 612-1650 sal_cicala@yahoo.com
