Sputtering off idle FIXED! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well I finally decided to rebuild my Qjet myself (I've never built a carb before) in hopes it would fix my off idle sputtering.

IT DID! and it wasn't that difficult to do either. Unfortunately the carb kit I bought didn't have instructions so I was at a slight disadvantage...but I took a good look at things before I removed them and it really wasn't that difficult.

Cost me $12 and some carb cleaner. The rebuild shop wanted $150 to rebuild it. It took about 2 hours...not a bad per hour savings!

Thanks to everyone that offered advice and information.
