So here's where i'm at with everything. After my neighbor helped me lean the mixture and adjust the idle it worked much much better.....for a while. Now it's back to cold stalling. It's only 60 ish in the morning so it's not even that cold. I can only imagine how bad this will be in the winter (my garage isn't heated).
At first i thought i would just switch fron the divorced choke to a manual choke which i've heard is much better. But i think you are all right and i might have to actually rebuild the carb. So my question now becomes......what replacement?
I will rebuild the quadrajet on my own in the next few weeks. I want a brand new carb i can throw on so i can keep driving the car. I think having the spare rebuilt and ready to go would be good anyway. If i buy a new carb i might go with an electronic choke.
I have 2 that i'm looking at
Demon carb 625
Demon Fuel Systems*-1900*-625 Street Demon® - Ball Burnished Aluminum
or the
Edelbrock 1405 or 1406
Performance Carburetors and Accessories - Thunder Series Carburetors - Edelbrock, LLC.
I've hear people say that electric chokes are TERRIBLE and if your going to move away from a divorced choke you should go to a manual choke. Any advice there?
Also i noticed that there is a lot of different types of carbs with different bowl materials? Suggestions?
Lastly i was looking at Holley carbs and quickly became overwhelmed. There are a lot. Is a double pumper something i should get or is it not worth the money.
Thanks for the help all!!!!!!!!!!!!
