I am doing a stock rebuild. I'm relieved that I'm not the only one with carb issues. I am dreading a 3rd rebuild. If you went the high road then I might need to as well. I had a lot of surging and some gasket leaks, then I do a rebuild and now it seems like there's no fuel getting to the carb. I can't think of any reason the linkages would be different and I pretty much need all of them. The PO just had some bent rod welded to more bent rod and all held in with clothes hangers and paper clips. It was atrocious enough that I didn't want to drive it home. Luckily I only lived about 6 miles away.
