Re: How do I select the right carburetor?
any tips on tuning it up a bit? I'm not too familiar with carbs, but pretty tech saavy.

Re: How do I select the right carburetor?
i would start by replacing your fuel filter and checking all those numerous vacuum hoses for leaks. check the voltage on the TPS as well. you already have the better rods and hanger so i won't suggest that upgrade.
