CarbKing,
There's a fellow in town who advertises "Carburetors that Work" in the Antique Vehicle section of our classified ads. I think he puts in a Teflon throttle shaft. Does that work for longer than his one-year guarantee?
Also, did I get lucky with my $15 Ebay Rochester Monojet? No leaks. Or should I start looking for a Carter YF?
