If you can afford it,just take the whole thing off and get a kit put through it by someone who knows what they are doing.
That is unless it has an easy fix .

Could even be a fuel pump.


Diesels will run upside down

About $300. Ring a few carby shops in the yellow pages. Check whether the price includes the vac secondary gadget on the side as that cost $40 on its own.

A good shop can bench tune them so you plonk it back on and driveaway.

I had mine done by Malaga Carby and Electrical in Oxleigh ave Malaga.

They are good carbs,dont listen to anyone who says fit a Horrible Holley

hi
i've been fiddling with my carb (stock) down here in southern chile, I first leaned it too much to try and get better mileage, but the engine was just about choked with no power, I then ran it way too rich for a while where it guzzle gas, now I think I got it right, good throtle response and probably getting 5.7 klms per liter over rough roads. I will go for the DUI distributor next.

Ive never seen anything better than having them adjusted to how hey are supposed to be.
Most owners go for a carby swap if they want a little bit more power and are happy to fiddle with it for weeks/months and maybe some more
