autolite carb |
By J B - 09/05/2004 9:28:34 PM; IP 68.248.51.190 |
I have a 68 Ford XL with a 390 4v. I have been having problems with stumble on acceleration, rough idle and starting in cold weather. Also, the heat tube has rusted out of the hole coming out of the engine. I had a guy put a kit in the autolite 4300 and tried to re-connect the heat tube, but it has come out again.
My question is, I don't know whether or not to rebuild this carb or as a friend suggested, buy a new holly for it and just bolt it on.
Thing is, I can't find any documentation on what the cfm's are on the autolite 4300. I have seen a reasonable Holley on ebay for $169 - its a 600 cfm with vacuum secondaries and electric choke - new.
I would like to keep the car as original as possible, but I also want to drive it without too much hassle.
Should I consider this or rebuild mine?
Thanks, J B |
