Re: help on tune up and carburetor issues

Had a lot of similar issues with my 70. Aside from the aforementioned timing issue, a carb rebuild would do a world of good. I recently rebuilt my Edelbrock on my 350 and it solved nearly all my issues. A rebuild kit is around 40 bucks, and replacement carb is around 300. So if your keeping an eye on finances like I am its worth a go at the rebuild. Fairly straightforward process, and the instructions that come with the kit are straightforward and pretty easy to follow; at least on the Edelbrock side.

I was also nervous about attempting the rebuild, having never done it before but my thought process was that if I couldn't get everything back together, I wasn't really that much worse than before, and if I did get it fixed then I would have saved myself a few hundred bucks. Just my two cents
