    since it is under warranty i would give him a call and tell him that you are still having the same problem. Let him offer a suggestion. Either that or send it somewhere else and get it looked at once again. Why cant you just stick with the one that works?

    Sounds to me that it wasn't rebuilt right, I'd take it back.

    I got the Carter Zip fit because the rebuilder was taking so long with the original to rebuild it, it was $60 buy it now on ebay so I snagged it up.. but it's actully for a manual transmission car, the A/T carb has some weird linkage for the kick down. my kick down cable is broke so right now, it's hooked up and working fine w/o issue but if I ever wanted to replace the kickdown, I need the original carb.. I wouldn't even worry about the original carb if it was a small cost but it cost almost $300 with shipping to get it rebuilt. I'm gonna give him a call to see what he wants me to do.
