X2 on get a new mechanic. Quads don't have valves. They've got secondary throttle plates. Yours likely won't open because the choke lock out is on.
If you get a new carb whether a holley or Edelbrock you'll need a new intake or an adaptor to put the new carb on yours. One like this.
Keep the quad. It's likely the best for your truck.
