Very good question. Lately it seems that the needle valve and seats are of 
varying quality (doesn't seem to make a difference on supplier), and that the 
old ones are usually still good. If he replaced the one for the carb on the 1-2 
side, then that might be a good place to start. Other than the needle valves 
and seats, the kits are usually pretty good. The carbs themselves are usually 
pretty bullet proof, and fairly easy to work on. If he has access to the 
internet, he might want to look at this page, and maybe print it out.
