    Okay folks it's official. Rebuilding carbs is NO F*&$ing FUN!!!!

    This is the last time I ever do this.

    A good friend of mine that helps me with most of my mechanic type stuff convinced me to go with a whole different motor so I am just rebuilding this carb as a temp fix.

    Well I just needed to take a quick break and vent a little.

    Is it the stock 2bbl becuase they had to be the easyest carbs in the world to work on, the hard ones are the double pumpers and some of the bigger holleys.

    If its the stock 2bbl i have detailed colour instrutions i can scan if you need them

    the thing is I think I took apart a little more than I needed to and I am having a little trouble getting all the linkage junk back to gether right. I have most of it put back together but I need to get it on the car and running correctly today so that I can drive the car to work Monday morning.

    And yes it is the stock 2bbl. the 2100 model to be specific. If you could scan those instrutions and either email them to me or post them I would be forever grateful. The instructions that come with the rebuild kit and the ones in my Motor auto repair manual just don't have views from the angles that I would like.

    My email is bumpusd@lycos.com if you want to send them to me directly.
    Thanks
