I was going to rebuild my carb but once i got it apart it looks pretty rough on the inside.also one of the idle mixture screw threads had been cross threaded.
So i have been looking for a reman but found out this model is scarce.Most places are around 250 to 270 bucks.Its just a rochester 2bbl..geeze
Carb#17085008.(rochester#)
Sierra makes a reman so i thought my family member at Napa could get thier hands on one cheap...no luck although they sell sierra parts its not available from Napa. Online sites have the same sierra carb.I'm thinking conspericy here..
So i'm looking on Flying Fish.com,
They seem to have the best price if i return the core.And if i tell them my
engine and drive info the carb will be tuned to pretty much bolt on and go...188 bucks plus shipping.
Has anyone bought from them?
