swaffordvw=> Either i need help or i have to sell it. It sounds like you're pretty frustrated with your car, and I can relate to that. If you can take a little more time and help us diagnose your problem, we can probably help. If the car is actually starting, it seems likely that your problem won't be too difficult to find. But your description was pretty vague -- is this something that you've asked about before? If so, I've forgotten the thread. How about refreshing us on the details? Start with your year and model, and why you think it's a carb problem. What sort of carbs are they, stock, aftermarket? Then we'll need to know exactly what you did with the carbs -- did you take them apart? how far? how did you clean them? etc. Do you know how to balance them, and do you have a balancing tool? Some history of the problem would be good, too: when it started, was anything changed in the engine about that time, like that. Is your intake system complete -- linkage, springs, balance pipe, air cleaner? Do you have a manual? It sounds like you're right at the end of your rope, but you'd still like to save this project. I for one will try to help if I can, and I'll bet there are others here who feel the same way. But we'll need you to look closely and be complete if we're to help you figure it out. In any case, here's your first step, just in case you haven't already figured it out: quit buying stuff. A guy with no job should not be wasting money on engine parts he doesn't need. Let's see about putting that bread where it'll make a difference. Steven Ayres, Prescott AZ
